From Minneapolis to Palestine: Resistance to Apartheid, Occupation & Police Brutality

March 24, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

From Minneapolis to Palestine: Solidarity Against State Terror

Thursday, March 24th @ 7pm @ the University of MN – Smith Hall, Room 231

Across the world, repression is worsening but the movement is growing. Palestinians are resisting Israel’s efforts to push them out of their homes in Sheik Jarrah. In Minneapolis, people are rising up against the recent execution of Amir Locke  and anti-Black racism.

Join the Minnesota Anti-War Committee, U of MN Students for Justice in Palestine  and the Twin Cities Coalition for Justice for Jamar for a panel on the multinational resistance from Minneapolis to Palestine during Israeli Apartheid Week. Speakers will address how:

  •  Repression in Palestine and U.S. cities like Minneapolis is connected by the tactics and technology Israel develops and exports to American law enforcement
  • The resistance crosses borders too. Palestinians in the diaspora stand with Black victims of police violence. At the same time we are seeing a global movement to free Palestine grow and gain legitimacy.
  • You can show your solidarity with Palestine and support community control of the police to stop killer cops!

Co-sponsored by Students for Justice with Palestine – U of MN, Students for Democratic Society – U of MN, Anti-War Committee and Twin Cities Coalition for Justice for Jamar.
