Content warning: we discuss genocide, violence and oppression in this show. We express our deep sorrow and grief as events unolding in Palestine, and our unwavering solidarity. In this show we talk about total liberation and why we think it’s very important to stand against colonalism and genocide whenever and wherever it appears. We discuss the connections between forms of oppression such as racism and speciesism, and refer to The Vegan Bill of Consistent Anti-Oppression. Free Palestine Melbourne have held weekly Palestinian Solidarity rallies in Narrm/Melbourne and we play the powerful and moving speeches that were recorded from the rally on Sunday October 22, 2023.
