Keep building solidarity with Palestine
On this day of international solidarity, let us reaffirm our commitment to Palestinian rights, says PETER LEARY
EVERY year, on November 29, we observe the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. For decades, this date has served as a reminder of the enduring Palestinian struggle against settler colonialism, ethnic cleansing, military occupation and apartheid.
This year, the International Day of Solidarity arrives at the darkest moment in Palestinian history as Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip continues unabated.
We must see it as a moment to redouble our efforts to build the movement for Palestinian rights.
