Today: National Day of Action for Palestine

Today, Sunday 10th of December, is International Human Rights Day and the National Day of Action for Palestine. It is more important than ever to maintain support for Palestine and add your presence to movements around Australia calling for a ceasefire and an end to the occupation.

It may feel exhausting, and the only way to ease the burden is to share it between as many people as possible until we see a free Palestine. Palestinians are facing endless horror everyday and our actions hold the power to change that. There is strength in knowledge, and strength in numbers.

Find your local rally today, and add your voice to the calls for liberation. Keep protesting, keep calling and emailing your MPs, keep wearing your keffiyehs in public. Our solidarity with Palestinians must continue to grow stronger everyday.

As a National Day of Action for Palestine, we must mobilise and demonstrate together that we do not accept the status quo that the government is maintaining. The more people showing up, the stronger the calls for change. Today we mobilise, tomorrow we continue, and the days after we keep going, until we see an end to the occupation. It all adds up.

Please see information from APAN about tangible action you can take to keep pushing towards these goals: https://apan.org.au/take-action/

Most importantly, continue to look after the community around you as we all push to see a free Palestine. We must all sustain energy and not be worn down by this relentless aggression. Rallies are an important place to share space with this community and channel energy collectively. Today is the time to show up!
