Saturday, Apr 16, 2016, 1:45 pm

Communities across contexts are impacted by militarized systems of oppression that share common roots and drivers, from the similar fear-based narratives used to justify state violence, to common suppliers of equipment, funding, and training.  This panel will explore common dimensions of struggle between movements for Black and Palestinian liberation, as well as “co-resistance” movements in Israel.

Speakers:

  • Kamau Franklin, community organizer and racial justice advocate
  • Andrew Kadi, human rights activist and digital media specialist
