Solidarity Everywhere: Multi-media Teach-In and Community Gathering
As the world’s imperial powers attempt to subjugate and separate us, we re-commit to the transnational solidarity required for our survival!
Join us for an evening of culture, learning, food, film, and music to deepen the powerful connections between Southeast Asian and Palestinian liberation movements. Fifty years since the (formal) end of the American war on Southeast Asia, we are fighting to end the enduring U.S. investment in Israel’s war on Palestinians. To mark this moment we gather not just to honor the fierce resistance that ended the imperialist wars of the past — but to ask how our communities, and allies, can learn from and strengthen each other through creative, strategic, and international organizing now.
Program:
— Teach-in with Roua Daas (Students for Justice in Palestine, @palestinianyouthmovement), @sabri (tatreez artist), Chhaya Chhoum (@seafnofficial) and Annie Ly (@asians4palestinenyc)
— Screening of “Taking Root,” stories of Southeast Asians in Philadelphia after the war
— Ceremonial offering, chef-artist Phoebe Tran (@bebep.babykitchen)
— Music from @palestineforever.nyc DJs @themusicofomar and @_______________mohamed
— Soap, wine, and more from SWANA farmers @saboonmaazeh and @wildarcfarm
— Food vending: @thejoyoffeasting @johnny_hummus — Indonesian x Palestinian culinary collab
— Indigenous dance traditions of the Southern Philippines, @kindingsindaw
