August 2, 2026
Following her passing at age 83, Chris Affleck—mother of actors Ben and Casey Affleck—is being remembered as a dedicated educator and lifelong advocate for the Palestinian people.
Pulitzer Prize–winning Palestinian writer Mosab Abu Toha shared a moving tribute to Chris, describing her solidarity as something that went far beyond words.
Driving around with a “Free Gaza” poster during the pandemic and organizing with the Alliance for Water Justice in Palestine.
Attending public readings, welcoming Palestinian families with warmth, and proudly wearing handcrafted gifts sent from Gaza.
Ben Affleck shared that the suffering and injustice faced by Palestinians was the most meaningful cause of distress to his mother throughout her life.
Rest in peace, Chris. Thank you for your unwavering kindness and solidarity. 🤍
