Everywhere you look it’s the echo of the South African anti-apartheid movement - ordinary people, artists & workers refusing to be complicit in genocide whilst our political & media class cozy up to racists & murderers.
Respect to Jasleen Kaur ✊🏿✊🏾🇵🇸

TurnerPrize 2024 winner Jasleen Kaur used her acceptance speech to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, demand an end to institutional complicity in Israels genocide & call for an arms embargo
A special mention to the pathetic statement from the presenter at the end

Last October, the Prime Minister told LBC that "Israel does have that right [to cut food, water & power from Gaza]."
Today, in the Chamber, he claimed he’s "well aware of the definition of genocide" & that's why he’s "never referred to [Gaza] as a genocide."
We won’t forget.

I have written to the Foreign Secretary as his remarks yesterday on Genocide in the House of Commons are both wholly inappropriate, offensive and fail to understand what Genocide actually constitutes. I look forward to an urgent response

1/9 @History_Reclaim, you claim to be standing up against “blatantly false readings of history” & challenging “distortion” while informing the @Telegraph of your version of history. But you are still claiming that an event fitting your view occurred despite knowing that it did not.
