Solidarity with Palestinian Freedom Fighters

Palestine will be free. For me, as a Black person, as an African in

America, that meant that I was trying to stand in a tradition of

African freedom

fighters who have stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people.

I'm talking about Malcolm X. I'm talking about Huey Newton.

I'm talking about Angela Y. Davis.

I'm talking about all the freedom fighters who stood up and said we must stand

against settler colonialism.

We must be unafraid to name it.

We must be unafraid to call it out. We must be unafraid to stand in

justice and freedom and democracy.

We stand in a tradition, and we will not be moved.

We will not back down. We will not be silenced.

This room, this movement, this moment is evidence that we will

be victorious. We will win. Palestine will be free.

Free the land.
