We stand with the Palestinian people against settler-colonization. We stand against all forms of colonialism and systematic repression by militaries and institutions.
A thread:
To be clear, in response to some feedback we've received from previously shared posts, we stand against antisemitism and all forms of discrimination.
We know that in certain countries the BDS movement may have been co-opted or taken away from its intended purpose.
But as we are based in many countries across the world, we primarily listen to the colonized and oppressed people (in this case, Palestinians especially) on the non-violent civil disobedience actions that they are calling on the rest of the world to do.

It is important to us as a group with a sizeable platform that we extend our voice and amplify calls for support & help worldwide,
especially since we are operating in a Global North country that is complicit in the Palestinian struggle. We wanted to discuss why we need to talk about it, as a climate justice group, and as people.
Solidarity and community are important tools in our mission, and today we are standing in solidarity with #SheikhJarrah and #FreePalestine movement. This struggle is complex. Still, there are so many facets of the colonial system that is built to suppress Palestnians.
Incarceration, the ID system and restriction to Al-Aqsa mosque are all things we need to learn and understand, and then fight. This is not a definite resource, but it is a statement as to why we are taking a stand.
@climatestrikecanada will be using their platform over the next few days to amplify the voices of Palestinian youth activists, honouring the lives of those who have been lost, and sharing action items.
Please continue educating yourselves on the issue using credible sources, and act by means that are accessible to you.
