This resource offers insights and recommendations for understanding and addressing bigotry targeting Muslims, Jews, and Arabs and Palestinians (who are often Christian), both in this moment and going forward. This guide is intended to prompt discussion and reflection on the language being used and how we build relationships in this particular time.

About the Wadee Resolution
Wadee AlFayoumi was a six-year-old Palestinian American Muslim boy murdered in October 2023 in a hate crime that left his mother critically injured. His killing was the first American murder on U.S. soil tied to the genocide in Gaza, and it exposed the deadly consequences of hate and dehumanization. It remains a profound loss to his family, community, and the global public as the genocide continues to unfold. It also underscores how political violence has increasingly targeted Palestinians and how anti-Muslim discrimination continues to endanger communities across the U.S.
To carry this work forward, the Wadee website and action alert hub (www.wadee.org) provide updates, resources, and opportunities to take part in remembrance and advocacy. Organizations and individuals are encouraged to join, sign on, and amplify Wadee’s story.
October 6: Wadee’s 8th Birthday, Day of Reflection & Action
On October 6, 2025, we reflect on what would have been Wadee’s 8th birthday, a day to mourn his absence and carry his light forward in his honor. Wadee’s story reflects the ongoing genocidal violence and dehumanization facing Palestinians everywhere. His birthday is a call to remembrance, resistance, and collective action to end genocide, hate, and the silencing of Palestinian lives, and to build a world where every child lives in safety, dignity, and peace.
Wadee’s story is part of a broader pattern of genocidal violence and dehumanization targeting Palestinians everywhere. His 8th birthday is a moment of remembrance, resistance, and a collective call to end genocide, hate, and the silencing of Palestinian lives.
