“They’re Not Nice” Alley in Jerusalem, Israel; 2011.
The Israeli Black Panthers were a group of Sephardi and Mizrahi Jewish activists who began in the Musrara neighborhood of Jerusalem in 1971. They protested against high housing prices, social problems, racism, and fought for an increase in the social welfare budget. On April 13, 1971 - prior to a meeting with the Israeli Black Panthers - then-Prime Minister Golda Meir had said, “They’re not nice” in reference to the group’s protests. In 2011, a group of artists in the Musrara neighborhood named two previously unnamed alleys as “They’re Not Nice Alley” and “Black Panthers Way”.
