Mapping Solidarity: The Arkansas Resistance Ecosystem
Our analysis of the network of power is incomplete without a corresponding map of the forces of resistance. The following is a strategic analysis of the Arkansas ecosystem of solidarity, identifying the key organizations and ideological currents that can be mobilized to build an intersectional front against complicity and for a liberated Palestine.
The Anti-Zionist Vanguard
These organizations form the core of explicit, public-facing Palestine solidarity work in the state, leading direct action and political campaigns.
Key Organization: Little Rock Peace for Palestine (LRPP)
LRPP is a grassroots formation explicitly committed to Palestinian liberation, framing the struggle for the right of return as interconnected with liberation struggles in the U.S. . Their primary strategic focus is a divestment campaign targeting the state's \$57 million investment in Israel Bonds.
Latent Power Centers: The National-Local Disconnect
Powerful national organizations have taken strong anti-war stances, but their local chapters remain publicly silent. This disconnect is a primary organizing opportunity.
- NAACP: The national organization issued a historic call to halt all U.S. arms shipments to Israel. Local Arkansas chapters, however, remain focused on domestic issues, presenting an opportunity to encourage alignment with national policy.
- Democratic Socialists of America (DSA): National DSA unequivocally condemns the "genocidal US-led escalation" and supports the student movement . The Central Arkansas DSA chapter's public activity is focused locally, creating a similar opportunity to activate a national mandate .
The Intersectional Bedrock: Bodily Autonomy
The state's leading reproductive and LGBTQ+ justice groups are grounded in an intersectional praxis of bodily autonomy and resistance to state violence, providing a deep ideological foundation for solidarity.
- Arkansas Abortion Support Network (AASN): Explicitly grounded in the Black-led Reproductive Justice framework, their fight for bodily autonomy in Arkansas is a direct parallel to the Palestinian struggle against a colonial state that systematically controls life and health .
- Lucie's Place: As the state's only shelter for homeless Queer and Trans youth, and led by Black and Brown Trans Southerners, their work is a living praxis of resistance against displacement and systemic violence, mirroring the Palestinian struggle for the right to exist .
The Materialist Bridge: Housing as a Human Right
The fight for housing rights in a state with some of the nation's most exploitative landlord-tenant laws provides a direct, material link to the Palestinian struggle against dispossession.
- Arkansas Renters United (ARU): This organization's concrete struggle against slumlords and unjust evictions is a direct parallel to the ongoing Nakba, home demolitions, and land theft that define the Palestinian experience. This shared material struggle provides the most potent bridge between a local "bread-and-butter" issue and the international anti-colonial struggle .
