Overview
Jessie Meredith [Jessica Meredith] has expressed support for terrorists and demonized Israel on social media.
Meredith attended the National Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) Conference, held at Tufts University (Tufts), in 2014.
In July 2016, Meredith reportedly helped establish Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at Pace University (Pace) SJP.
As of July 2020, Meredith’s LinkedIn page said she worked as a Program Associate for Cities of Service, from “Mar 2018 - Present” and studied Political Science, Peace and Justice Studies, Middle East Studies at Pace, from “2012 - 2018.”
As of July 2020, Meredith used the alias “Jess Freeman” on Facebook. In 2014 and 2015, she also went by the alias “Joyce Freeman” on Facebook.
Meredith wrote: “Militarily occupied Palestinians rightly deem Israel a ‘terrorist state’ and the Zionist ideology that has justified the ethnic cleaning [sic] of Palestinians and the occupation of their homeland a 'terrorist movement’. #dignitystrike #ishtaqna #supportpoliticalprisoners #freepalestine.”
“Dignity Strike” refers to a hunger strike initiated by Marwan Barghouti on April 16, 2017. More than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners participated in the strike – most them also convicted for acts of terrorism. Barghouti headed the Palestinian Authority (PA) terrorist Tanzim force and founded the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. He was sentenced to five consecutive life terms by an Israeli civilian court for some of his crimes, including his role in the Sbarro Cafe bombing.
On April 27, 2017, Meredith shared to Facebook an article by Marwan Barghouti, titled: “Why We Are on Hunger Strike in Israel’s Prisons.”
In her post, Meredith quoted Barghouti, writing: “Decades of experience have proved that Israel’s inhumane system of colonial and military occupation aims to break the spirit of prisoners and the nation to which they belong, by inflicting suffering on their bodies, separating them from their families and communities, using humiliating measures to compel subjugation. In spite of such treatment, we will not surrender to it.”
On February 22, 2016, Meredith updated her Facebook cover photo with a graphic that featured Rasmea Odeh.
Odeh was a key military operative with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist organization. In 1969, she masterminded a PFLP supermarket bombing that killed two college students. She also attempted to bomb the British consulate in Jerusalem. Odeh later moved to the United States but was deported to Jordan in 2017 for immigration fraud.
Meredith commented: “the struggle continues. #FreePalestine.”

Supporting Terrorists
On May 22, 2017, Meredith changed her profile picture on Facebook to one with a frame that read: “I support #DignityStrike”.Meredith wrote: “Militarily occupied Palestinians rightly deem Israel a ‘terrorist state’ and the Zionist ideology that has justified the ethnic cleaning [sic] of Palestinians and the occupation of their homeland a 'terrorist movement’. #dignitystrike #ishtaqna #supportpoliticalprisoners #freepalestine.”

Demonizing Israel
On November 9, 2014, Meredith shared an article on Facebook that quoted an Al Jazeera news story suggestingIsrael’s security fence was like the Berlin Wall. The article also cheered Palestinian “activists” who sledgehammered through a section of Israel’s security fence to "stress that Jerusalem is an Arab and Palestinian city.”Israel’s security barrier, 97 percent of which is a low chain-link barrier, was built as a deterrent to Palestinian terror attacks. The concrete portions of the fence were built in response to Palestinian sniper attacks.
Meredith commented: “the struggle continues. #FreePalestine.”
SJP Activism
On April 9, 2016, Meredith announced on Facebook that she was “really happy” to be involved with a NYC SJP program hosting Palestinian students from Birzeit University and Al-Najah National University as part of Birzeit University’s “Right to Education” tour.The Right to Education Tour brings Birzeit University students to U.S. campuses, where they claim that Israel is obstructing the rights of Palestinians to higher education. This claim mischaracterizes the sweeps Israeli security forces have made to shut down terror cells operating on the Birzeit campus, including cells linked to Hamas.
On October 24-26, 2014, Meredith featured in a photo shared on Facebook, “representing” Pace NYC SJP at the 2014 SJP National Conference hosted by Tufts University.
Although the event was listed on Facebook as being“free and open to the public,” at least one student journalist reportedly was“refused press credentials for the conference.”
Terror supporter Max Geller and agitator Ahmed Hamad both spoke and presented at the conference.
On October 25, 2014, Tufts SJP tweeted a quote by Sara Kershner, the founder of the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network (IJAN), alleged to have been said at the conference: “Zionism has hijacked [Jewish] history and struggle against genocide to justify genocide today.”
On October 25, 2014, Sa’ed Atshan, then the Tufts SJP faculty advisor, reportedly blamed Israel for Palestinian honor killings and persecution of LGBTQ+ people within Palestinian society.
On October 30, 2014, Conference attendee Ofek Ravid reportedly said that he was “booed and hissed at,” and told by “several members in the crowd to f**k off,” for suggesting that “Israel needs to be looked at as a complex nation through a dialectic lens, not as a black and white fragment.” Ravid was also reportedly asked to leave the building by an SJP representative.
WOL “Palestine Lives” 2018 Conference
Meredith indicated on Facebook that she “went” to the 2018 “Palestine Lives” conference on May 12, 2018, hosted by Within Our Lifetime (WOL), formerly known asNew York City SJP (NYC SJP).The conference was held at Hunter College (Hunter), part of City University of New York (CUNY).
The official conference poster featured a photo montage of armed men in Keffiyehs, with the caption: “Resisting Settler Colonialism Since 1948.”
Pace NYC SJP - Promoting Terrorists (2015-2016)
On August 16, 2015 Pace NYC SJP promoted a protest for Mohammad AllanAllan, a member of terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), was initially jailed in 2006 by Israel for trying to recruit a suicide bomber to carry out an attack in Israel. He was similarly detained in 2015.
On April 27, 2016, Pace NYC SJP shared a video on Facebook by AJ+ promoting Dima Al-Wawi.
12-year-old Al-Wawi said that she hoped she would be killed in the process of killing an Israeli security guard. She said: “I was dreaming that I was going to be martyred.” Al-Wawi was imprisoned for attempting to stab a security guard at the Israeli community Karmei Tzur.
Pace NYC SJP - Spreading Hatred of Israel (2014-2016)
On March 9, 2016, Pace NYC SJP shared to Facebook a Peace House rap video that condemned renowned American record producer, DJ and radio personality DJ Khaled for endorsing Sabra, an Israeli hummus producer.The video showed [00:00:45] clips of Palestinian rock throwers and rappers wearing [00:00:24] shirts saying “boycott sabra” and one rapper wearing a shirt with [00:00:57] “‘48,” condemning the founding of the modern State of Israel.
Rock throwing is a deadly form of violence, despite being romanticized as a form of “popular resistance.”
On March 3, 2016, Pace NYC SJP held an event titled: “South African Apartheid & Lessons for Palestine,” as part of Israel Apartheid Week (IAW).
Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) is presented internationally as a “series of events that seeks to raise awareness of…Israel’s settler-colonial project and apartheid system over the Palestinian people.” One of its goals is to build support for the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement. IAW has been renamed Palestine Awareness Week.
On February 27, 2015, Pace NYC SJP posted a graphic to Facebook, showing the logos of over 50 businesses, with the comment: “The Companies listed have a part in #Israeli state terrorism” and urged to “BoycottIsrael #BDS.”
The caption on the image read: “STOP ZIONISM BOYCOTT ISRAEL.”
On April 2, 2015, Pace NYC SJP wrote on Facebook: “Check out our NEW cover photo: the link gives a description of Zionist cleansing of the indigenous population and their injustices.”
The cover photo was of an image of a misleading series of maps.
The maps claim that lands once controlled by Britain, Egypt and Jordan as autonomous “Palestinian land” were purportedly stolen by Israel. In February 2016, publisher McGraw-Hill Education recalled copies of a college textbook containing the fraudulent maps. In October 2015, American cable news network MSNBC apologized for airing a similar series of maps and retracted them.
On April 21, 2014, Pace NYC SJP held an event that featured Remi Kanazi.
Remi Kanazi is an anti-Israel poet who has supported terrorism and has compared Israel to both ISIS and the Ku Klux Klan. He is known for his spoken-word performances which are aggressively anti-Israel.
Pace NYC SJP - Supporting Intifada (2015-2016)
On March 30, 2016, Pace NYC SJP promoted an event co-hosted by NYC SJP, titled: “Nakba Day March for Resistance and Return” slated to take place on May 15, 2016 in New York.Nakba is an Arabic term for “catastrophe” and refers to the outcome of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. It is a term often used to delegitimize the creation of the State of Israel.
On May 15, 2016, NYC SJP shared images from the event on Twitter and wrote: “From the river to the sea, intifada! Intifada!! #NakbaDay #Nakba68 #nyc.”
“From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free” is a chant calling to dismantle the State of Israel. It has also been employed by Hamas leader Khaled Mashal to call for the replacement of Israel with an Islamic state.
The term “intifada” has carried the connotation of violence, since the early 2000’s.
Scripted chants were distributed before the rally, where participants yelled [00:00:18]: “5-6-7-8 Smash the Settler Zionist State,” as well as [00:00:41] “we don't want a two-state [solution]; we want ‘48!” and [00:00:20] “There is only one solution: Intifada revolution!”
Nerdeen Mohsen Kiswani, NYC SJP co-founder and Chair, posted on Facebook a video recording of the protest that featured herself and other protesters inciting [00:00:01] against Jews who moved from New York to Israel, claiming [00:00:06] “The Brooklyn settlers, the New York settlers are the most violent.”

SJP
SJP is a student organization engaged in anti-Israel activity on North American college and university campuses.
The first chapter of SJP was founded in 2001 at the University of California at Berkeley by Professor Hatem Bazian. Bazian has spread classic anti-Semitism, reportedly promoted religious anti-Semitism and defended the Hamas terror group. In 2004, Bazian called for “intifada” in America.
SJP organizes anti-Israel campaigns, including running annual Israel Apartheid Weeks, often in collaboration with Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) and Muslim Students Association (MSA) campus chapters.
SJP has been a major force in pushing the anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement on campuses. Chapters have initiated dozens of BDS resolutions in student governments, which have been proposed on or around Jewish holidays, a time when many Jewish students are off-campus.
SJP activists have reportedly physically assaulted, intimidated and harassed Jewish students, disrupted pro-Israel campus events and demonized pro-Israel campus organizations.
Chapters have often endorsed and campaigned for numerous terrorists and whitewashed terrorism.
