🇵🇸NAKBA DAY DISPATCH🇵🇸

Today marks 76 years of the ongoing Nakba. Today marks 76 years of resistance to the zionist entity. Today, bombs rain down on the starved and besieged Jabalia refugee camp, the birthplace of the first Intifada, a punishment for the unyielding resilience of the Palestinian people, who are closer than ever to liberation.

As Kaleem Hawa of the Palestinian Youth Movement wrote today: “Zionism is the catastrophe.” The Nakba is not an event, calcified in the archive—it is a structure, an ongoing settler-colonial project sponsored by the most powerful empire on the planet.

“The movement is stronger than ever, more militant, more connected to the working class, to labor, to the students, whose encampments have bravely resisted their cities’ counterinsurgency strategies. Because of this work, the contradictions have become undeniable, an American left has been injected with new energies and now circles the fascists and their mercenaries.”

This Nakba Day, a solemn memorial to our martyrs and a celebration of their concrete commitment to liberation, we must spread the fire Gaza has ignited from the campuses to the streets, from the ivory tower to the embassies, from the students to the masses.

Embody the spirit of the courageous stone throwers, the freedom fighters, the elders who remain unbowed, feet rooted to their land like so many olive trees, those who brandish tools born out of revolutionary necessity. Embody the undefeated spirit of the children facing down tanks and bulldozers.

This Nakba Day we honor all our martyrs, and we promise to avenge them in life and in death. The empire will burn! By the millions, we will return!
