PALESTINE AND AFRICA UNITED BY ADVERSITY
Ok, so many of you keep asking why African Stream backs the Palestinian cause and why it’s relevant to Africans? Well, here’s your answer. In this clip @aaprp organiser Ahjamu Umi explains how both share a common fight against Zionist and Western imperialism. And it’s been that way for decades.
There’s a long and rich history of solidarity and collaboration between the African and Palestinian freedom movements. Thomas Sankara, Nelson Mandela, Samora Machel, and Julius Nyerere are just a few revolutionary African heads of state who had a great relationship with the Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO). Black revolutionaries of the diaspora, including Huey P. Newton and Malcolm X, also worked with and learned from Palestinians. Even in more recent times, Palestinians have taught Black Lives Matter protesters how to stay safe from tear gas and other dangers tied to protesting.
However, according to Ahjamu, it’s not down to friendship. Even if Palestinians disliked Africans (which they don’t) he’d still support their struggle as it weakens the common enemy of imperialism. To him it’s logical. Do you see it that way too?
