The Palestinian cause is not a cause for Palestinians only, but a cause for every revolutionary, wherever he is, as a cause of the exploited and oppressed masses in our era.” ― Ghassan Kanafani

We are witnessing the growth of a global anti-war movement in response to Israel’s war crimes. Despite increased fear mongering and repression, hundreds of thousands around the world are protesting and organising in solidarity with Palestine. Join Barnaby Raine and Nihal El Aasar for a conversation on why we must redouble these solidarity efforts, and how we build a mass international movement for Palestinian liberation.

About Until Liberation: A Series for Palestine by Haymarket Books:

Today, we are confronting a watershed moment in the struggle against colonialism and apartheid. As an internationalist left around the world, we must take a decisive stance in support of Palestinian liberation.

Haymarket Books and partners are organizing an urgent series of online events to provide education in the context of current events. At Haymarket, Palestine has always been at the core of our political and intellectual project, and we believe free and accessible political education is crucial to solidarity efforts.

The situation is dire. As media outlets spread lies and misinformation, politicians and journalists are paving the way for Israel to carry out mass genocide in Gaza. In the West Bank, settlers are armed and carrying out pogroms. The governments of the USA, UK and across the Global North are putting in place chilling measures to crack down on solidarity. The Israeli state is killing Palestinians with impunity and Palestinians everywhere are being silenced.

We are entering a new era of the struggle for Palestine and until Palestine is free, none of us are free. Join us for a series of urgent conversations about the history, politics, and stakes of Palestinian liberation.
