Our Roots Are Still Alive, San Francisco

1990
After returning from three months living and working in Palestine BTS focused on fulfilling its mission of bringing back information about Palestine to the American public.
BTS painted a mural locally about the situation for Palestinians living under Israeli occupation.  BTS made links between Palestine and the life of refugees everywhere particularly in the Mission neighborhood of San Francisco, long a haven for refugees the world over.  This mural was covered up in 2001 because of constant and increasingly virulent attacks, coupled with the city’s inability to protect it.  BTS hope to be able to uncover and rededicate the mural when Palestinians and all oppressed people have justice.
