Moving Toward Home: The Enduring Legacy of Black and Palestinian Solidarity

Linda Sarsour, Rachel Gilmer, and Lama Alhasn speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2024. This session was sponsored by Dream Defenders. A decade ago, “from Ferguson to Palestine, occupation is a crime,” rang out at protests around the United States. This acknowledgement of shared struggle came from an enduring commitment against colonial domination by Black and Palestinian revolutionaries, a connection that has only strengthened over the years. This session will examine how this bond was built, from Malcolm and Muhammad touring Palestinian refugee camps to ongoing action for a Free Palestine, and explore where our fights for liberation go from here. The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, July 3-6. Learn more about the Socialism Conference at www.socialismconference.org.
