Why Palestine Matters to Africa – with Wesam and a live audience
Manage episode 450339702 series 3483809
In this powerful episode recorded with a live audience at MS TCDC in Arusha, Tanzania (a centre established by the administration of Pan-African socialist Julius Nyerere, who famously said “We will stand with Palestine, as we stood against apartheid and colonialism in South Africa”), we sit down with Wesam to learn about the history of Palestinian resistance.
We explore the deep-rooted connections between Africa and Palestine. From shared histories of colonization and liberation struggles to the solidarity that continues today, we discuss why Palestine resonates so strongly for Africans. We unpack the political, cultural, and humanitarian dimensions of this bond and ask why the African continent presents a vital voice in the Palestinian cause.
