Unpacking the ceasefire and our feelings around it isn't easy, so who better to help us than Fatima Saleh and Anna Lippman? These two Palestinian Solidarity Activists have been at the front lines for a ceasefire for 15 months, a Free Palestine even longer. How are they feeling about seeing people return to the north of Gaza, or about Trump's comments about what's next for the region? Its a bit complicated.
While we can feel joy and relief in the moment, both our guests are clear - we need to keep up the pressure on politicians, continue our education and create more disruptions.
Guests:
- Fatima Saleh, Palestinian activist based in Edmonton, AB; and,
- Anna Lippman, organizer with Independent Jewish Voices and Labour for Palestine.
CALLS TO ACTION
- Anna's X thread of GoFundMe Pages for people in Gaza;
- Epicore Delivers Genocide; and,
- #ArmsEmbargoNow!
