In this moment, we bear witness to the most abhorrent acts of colonialism, desecrating all international laws and policies that guarantee human rights to a decent life, freedom, and self-determination. We are all witnesses to the most horrific attacks, leaving indelible scars on human memory. From the ruthless killing of children and women, to the forced displacement and exile of people, to the relentless use of all methods of war against a colonized people, culminating in their extermination on their own land.

The use of food as a weapon of war has turned Gaza into a severe famine zone.

Hence, we call upon everyone to join the struggle and unite in solidarity, amplifying our voices louder than ever before to attain justice for Palestine.

We also encourage you to read our recent declaration that explains the needs of this moment in Gaza. Click here.

Globalize the struggle! Globalize hope!
