This session will investigate on mainstream media’s role in manufacturing consent for the genocide in Gaza. Panelists will address the disinformation and myth-making campaigns waged to undermine the shift in popular support for the Palestinian struggle.

Since the early 20th century, the Palestinian national liberation movement has cultivated a resistance project that sought to unify the Palestinian popular classes around shared vision and strategy. The various conditions facing the Palestinian people in the struggle against imperialism and colonialism—from exile to occupation, from siege to political isolation—has required creative forms of resistance. At the heart of the strategy for Palestinian liberation is the conviction that the struggle must transform the whole of society on social, political, psychological, and spiritual levels for it to succeed. More recently, the Palestinian resistance has proven itself resourceful and resilient in the face of conspiracies to liquidate the Palestinian struggle through normalization. This discussion will explore the advancements made by the Palestinian resistance over the last decade, demonstrating the role of the popular cradle in sustaining the Palestinian struggle. Speakers: Tara Alami, Raja Abdelhaq, Abdaljawad Omar, Jeanine Hourani Moderator: Sarah Abdelshamy

The Palestinian people have experienced endless warfare for over a century, yet never before have Palestinians endured a genocide of such catastrophic proportions. While this phase of the war on Palestine demonstrates a continuity of Zionist land-theft, imperialist collusion, and systematic annihilation of Palestinian life, it also presents important transformations within the Palestinian, Israeli, regional, and international political fields. This discussion will reflect on the lead-up to and contemporary impact of the war on Palestine, highlight the conditions on the ground, particularly in the occupied Gaza Strip, and offer insights on the stakes of the current moment for the future of Palestine and the Palestinians. Speakers: Ghassan Abu Sitta, Mustafa Barghouti, Jehad Abu Salim, Taher Herzallah Moderator: Laura Khoury

We are in an unprecedented moment in history. As we bear witness to the ongoing and brutal genocide against the Palestinian people, we are also part of building a mass movement that is committed to struggling for Palestinian national liberation. The demands for an end to the genocide, lifting of the siege of Gaza, an end to all US aid for Israel, and a free Palestine echo in the streets, in classrooms and universities, disrupting the halls of government and the daily lives of all genocide-profiteers. All backers of Zionism, Israel, and US imperialism have been put on notice. The perpetrators of genocide and occupation have names and faces, and the masses of people around the world stand against them in the millions. The movement for Palestine has never been stronger: but with this strength comes a monumental responsibility. This moment calls on us to strengthen our relationships, our strategies, our tactics, and our unity for the struggle ahead. We must build a shared assessment of the moment, and chart out the next phase of our struggle. The Palestinian people have been fighting for liberation for over 100 years, and are committed to continuing this fight generation after generation, until victory. Join us as organizations, collectives, movement leaders, community members, students and intellectuals, artists and cultural workers, and activists for a three-day convening to reflect, exchange, and strengthen ourselves and our fight for a free Palestine.

From Cleveland to Palestine, we are not intimidated by the occupiers. The Party for Socialism and Liberation rejects zionism in our city and call on all institutions and citizens to boycott, divest, and sanction Israel. After the ICJ's ruling on Israel's actions in the Gaza strip, the moral imperative to denounce Israel is more obvious by the day. Reject Zionism! Support Liberation! @pslnational".

Supporters of the Claudia De la Cruz/Karina Garcia 2024 socialist presidential campaign gathered in Newark, New Jersey on January 28. Claudia, Karina and prominent activists spoke about how we need to build a real alternative to the ruling class parties. The two capitalist parties claim to be the only “real” options for people in this country, but every day they prove themselves to be committed to exploitation, war, and destroying our planet to make more profits for the super-rich. We launched this campaign with the main goal of building the movement for socialism and liberation, but also to cut through the lie that we have to always choose the “lesser of two evils.” Both the Democrats and Republicans serve CEO’s, bankers, and Wall Street - but each and every volunteer shows that the working class and oppressed people in this country want and need our own party!
