Palestine Legal’s Founding Board Member Michael Ratner inspired us to fiercely demand a better world. After his passing in 2016, we created a fund in his name to support a two-year legal fellowship for young attorneys to gain practical experience in movement lawyering, an approach that Michael embodied. Through this fellowship, we aim to continue Michael’s legacy of using the law in service of the people.
