Yesterday evening, Diana Buttu and Omar Barghouti answered questions at a second teach-in on Gaza. It was an evening of community and conversation - Barghouti answered questions about boycotts, how they function, the ethical underpinning of the movement, and how well they work. Diana spoke of the the chances of the ICC investigating what’s happening now as war crimes, the loneliness of living in Palestine and how much solidarity means to the people of Gaza. The evening ended on an emotional and resonant note, if you can’t watch the whole video I urge you to listen to the last five minutes. (But watch the whole video)
I am not able to share the full recording of our first teach-in, but you can see clips and all the resources I shared here. We will load this teach-in on Youtube but until then, a huge thanks to the panelists, everyone who attended and Mariam Tareen for organising the event.
