Call for a Global Strike in Solidarity with Palestine

Announcements.,Calls

Join us in the Global General Strike in support and solidarity with Palestine. 

Tomorrow, on Friday, October 20th, we will take a firm stance against the occupation and the assaults on Palestinians.

This strike is part of a global movement. The original call was made by Palästina Spricht and Palästina Kampagne.

Let us amplify the voice of Palestinians.

In the wake of the Zionist atrocities committed, once again, against Palestinians in their lands, we, the Anti-Racism Movement in Lebanon, are joining the Global General Strike. We stand in solidarity with the Palestinians’ right to resist the Zionist occupation, and their fight for liberation.

On one hand, the occupation is determined to annihilate an entire indigenous nation. And on the other, it continues distracting the world with propaganda and false information to garner support for its crimes.

As a feminist, anti-racist group, we emphasize that the current Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank is not an isolated incident, but must be read within the context of more than 75 years of settler colonialism, stolen land, racial discrimination and ethnic cleansing.

Meanwhile, the imperialist machine continues to fund, support, enable and actively cover up the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.

Accordingly, we call on you to:
 
  • Join the general worldwide strike on Friday, October 20th, as well as the global solidarity actions including the BDS movement and local protests against accomplice companies, institutions, and governments.
  • Support the Palestinian people in their war against misinformation and media blackouts about the real situation by amplifying their voices, online and offline.
