[Podcast] Encampments for Palestine: reports from the front lines As the horrors of Israel’s war on Gaza continue to escalate, a wave of student protests has erupted in solidarity with the Palestinians: drawing comparisons with the anti-Vietnam War movement. Starting in the USA, the encampments quickly spread internationally, meeting with press slander and brutal police repression. In this special episode, we speak with four student communists from Canada, the UK, Austria and the USA, who have been active in encampments at various universities, to hear about their experiences of this inspiring struggle.What is the mood at these encampments? What kind of opposition have they faced from university authorities and state forces? What sort of demands are being raised? We cover all of this and more! Offering context and our general perspective, we welcome back as well Fred Weston from our International Secretariat to talk about the situation in Gaza, Israel’s operations in Rafah, and what is necessary for this movement to escalate.We recommend this statement on a communist programme for the encampments.Here is our latest statement on Rafah, which also contains our proposed strategy for escalating the protest movement.We also suggest recent articles on the repression and attacks against students in Canada and the United States.Divest and disclose: open the books!Not a cent, not a bullet for the Israeli war machine!Free Palestine!Intifada until victory, revolution until victory!Listen and subscribe belowYoutubeSpotifyApple PodcastsMarxist.com Podcasts:https://podcast.marxist.com/2024/05/17/encampments-for-palestine-reports-from-the-front-lines/
