Abahlali baseMjondolo in solidarity with #Palestine
Black people were not seen as human beings in this country under #apartheid, and we, as impoverished black people, continue to have our humanity denied almost thirty years after apartheid. This is a very painful thing, and because we understand the pain of living under apartheid and as #poor people in this country, we understand something of what the Palestinians are going through. If you know the pain of living under #oppression, you will be in solidarity with the oppressed people of Palestine.
We fully support the call to have the Israeli embassy removed from South Africa with immediate effect. We also support the calls by the South #African government to call upon the International Criminal Court to investigate Benjamin #Netanyahu for #war #crimes.
We are supporting the call for the boycott of Israeli products
We are in #solidarity with all our #Jewish #comrades in South Africa and around the world who are standing up against the oppression of Palestine and this genocidal attack on #Gaza.
