I declined an invitation to the White House today for pride. While I plan on voting for the President in November, I cannot participate in this administration’s celebrations while a genocide is still actively supported by it.
There’s no pride without a free Palestine.
Palestinians have the right to resist colonialism!
Palestinians have the right to resist occupation!
Palestinians have the right to resist apartheid!
Palestinians have the right to resist displacement!
Palestinians have the right to live with dignity in their own land!
Kind reminders:
1—Palestinians don’t owe you a clarification or condemnation regarding their stance on the resistance. Unlearn your western exceptionalism
2—Calling it a “religions conflict” is reductive & lazy. Call it Israeli colonialism, racism, ethnic cleansing, occupation
