#161 How we show up: BDS as solidarity practice


Listen Later

"The people’s blood won’t stain our hands" - the words decried from a recent direct action in Athens where the port workers took industrial action to stop the shipment of Israeli arms. This is an example of a way we can boycott, divest and sanction in our everyday lives.

We're joined by staunch, third-generation Palestinian organiser and advocate Rand Khatib to take us through the legacy of resistance in her blood, and the power of collective action through BDS actions that Palestinians have long-called for. Every day, there are non-violent, material ways we can commit to the end of occupation.

We also also hear from those in our local community practicing BDS and what their experiences of learning this, have been.

Join us: BDS actions is so-called Australia
