UK, London: INTERNATIONALISM & SOLIDARITY WITH PALESTINE EVENT 2.10.10

10 YEARS SINCE THE INTIFADA series - Part I

INTERNATIONALISM & SOLIDARITY WITH PALESTINE 
"We are not liberating
Palestine, Palestine is liberating us"

This is the first event in a series of events which commemorates 10 years since the eruption of the defining struggle of our generation - the Al-Aqsa / Second Intifada against the zionist-apartheid state. It is also a salute to that struggle.

This event will explore the development of solidarity and internationalism with Palestine during the Intifada; what forms of struggle were more effective than others, and how we can continue to build a radical and effective internationalism for Palestine.

PROGRAM:

* There will be large prints from paintings from artists from Gaza
* There will be a photo exhibition from pictures of Palestinians during the Intifada kindly provided by Pennie Quinton
* There will also be an exclusive photo gallery by journalist and war correspondent Mustafa Khalili who covered the Intifada
