"@WitsUniversity prides itself on being a progressive institution at the forefront of social change, but it acts in a contrary manner regarding Palestinian liberation." #Witsforgood ?

[Africa Is a Country @africasacountry]

South Africa’s Wits University likes to vaunt its anti-apartheid credentials. So why is it cozy with Israel and Zionism? From the @PSC_Wits https://t.co/JMXRUAYZ0a

Dear @UNICEF, what’s the point of keeping footballers like Lionel Messi or David Beckham as “ambassadors for children” if they can’t even speak up when tens of thousands of children are being slaughtered in Gaza?

What are they ambassadors for, exactly?

@activatewits Together, United ✊🏼

Today, marks 1 year since the intense escalation of a genocide & occupation which began 76 years ago. As Activate, we stand with the Palestinian struggle for liberation. We encourage all members & allies to attend the vigil organized by @PSC_Wits this evening outside Great hall.

Historic rally at LSE, demanding an immediate divestment of £89 million.

The massacres happening in GZ in the last weeks have been unbearable to witness unravel.

Do you understand that it's one massacre after the next? Do you know what that means?

40 killed. 20 killed. 15 killed. 50 killed. 70 killed. 100 killed. All in a day's work.

Israel—

A nation that built itself in the name of Jewishness by misusing the greatest pain inflicted on Jews as the smokescreen to carry out the very crimes they claim to “never again.”

Allow yourself to be repulsed by that, a regime carrying out crimes against humanity under the veil of survivors of crimes against humanity.

Allow yourself to come to terms that Israel is an abomination to humanity, to justice, and to Jewishness. It’s a nation of ill-hearted psychopaths, and must be stopped.

[Jairo I. Fúnez-Flores @Jairo_I_Funez]

One out of every nineteen Palestinians in Gaza has been killed our injured.

[Jordy Silverstein @jordana_s_]

If you’re not inspired by the students, by Palestinians, by all the resistance that is mounting globally, I don’t know what to tell you. But you’re missing out. The world is changing, you should want to be part of it. Palestine will be free. We will all be free.

LSE students and staff drop a historic report on the complicity of LSE in crimes against the Palestinian people, arms trade, and climate breakdown.

ISRAEL DESTROYED MY CITY | GAZA

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Today marks the anniversary of the Nakba, when 750,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes.

The Nakba didn't end in 1948. It is an ongoing campaign of ethnic cleansing, violence and occupation.

Our solidarity lives on - we will never give up on the Palestinian people.

Aimé Césaire: "No one colonizes innocently, that no one colonizes with impunity either; that a nation which colonizes, that a civilization which justifies colonization—and therefore force—is already a sick civilization, a civilization which is morally diseased."
