Yesterday the #katipunan of students, alumni, allies, & neighbours started sewing the Palestinian flag at Torrington Square. We are calling for the end of the destruction of schools and universities and the murder of teachers, professors, and students in Palestine. #BBK4Palestine
Colonialism is abusing Japanese people in Japan and then being comforted by a white man saying “they don’t understand.”
The only country to be collectively punished hy nuclear weapons doesn’t understand war crimes?
🚨 NEW REPORT

We're heartbroken to hear about the loss of 4 lives in the Channel. These are avoidable deaths resulting from violent immigration policies. The new gov must act now to prevent more deaths, starting by reinstating the right to asylum & creating safe routes. https://t.co/lKsJotd4Cm
Our #katipunan started to embroider the original names of Palestinian villages on the flag. Palestinian liberation one stitch at a time. Resistance is on a spectrum. #Sew4Palestine#BBKPalestine#FreePalestine https://t.co/9mo7fmburc
On the occasion of Eid al-Adha and amidst the harsh war on Gaza, my father is making dresses for children to bring smiles to their faces. I am very proud to have someone like my father.

#Sew4Palestine was inspired by the three Filipino women who made the 🇵🇭 flag during the Revolution. The #katipunan of Birkbeck students, alumni, our neighbours, and supporters are sewing a 🇵🇸 flag until liberation. Anti-colonial resistance is on a spectrum for a #FreePalestine!
Did you know that the Philippines first had to fight Spain and then the US before gaining independence? Although victory over the Spanish colonists was achieved, the US effectively took over as colonialists from the Spanish. Read on.

I apologize but the volume of this has not been on my radar. 50 Palestinian journalists are being detained???? US media is (rightfully) outraged abt ONE American journalist being detained in Russia. Where is the outrage about 50 fucking journalists jailed (& likely tortured)???
