Short 🧵 [Please RT] Former #ANC #MP & #AntiApartheid campaigner w/ Archbishop Desmond #Tutu, .@andrewfeinstein, powerfully shreds .@Keir_Starmer & his amoral party’s record on #Apartheid in this #DDN video:
1/4
Some brief quotes:

“It is incredibly hypocritical of our political leaders to praise Desmond Tutu, the person who fought & overcame #Apartheid in the past while, at the same time, they are stifling & trying to prevent us from halting #Apartheid today. 2/4
The reality that Desmond Tutu would be expelled from the .@UKLabour Party today for his support for #BDS against #Israel is a reflection on the current morality of .@Keir_Starmer’s #Labour Party. That is not the legacy of Archbishop Tutu. 3/4

“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor”

Veteran anti-apartheid campaigner, Desmond Tutu, has died”

He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984 & two years later became Archbishop of Cape Town #DesmondTutu #Tutu
The oppression & brutality of apartheid never dampened #DesmondTutu’s belief in humanity’s potential

“You can overcome some of the most horrendous circumstances & emerge on the other side, not broken, with the eagerness to spread goodness & compassion.”
Waking up to the news of #DesmondTutu’s death, then thinking back on his life, I was reminded of something I wrote last year:

“The heart is built to break
It breaks each day
The heart is built to fill with joy
It fills with joy each day”
