Falastiniyat

A grassroots collective of diasporic Palestinian feminists in Seattle living & organizing at the intersection of gender justice and anti-colonialism

12/05/2024

The American Empire and allied imperial powers have shown time and time again that their interests lie only with each other, focusing on extracting capital and resources from the Third World.
Red or blue, America is Israel’s number one military sponsor for the attempted extermination campaign against the Palestinians. Red or blue, America is the largest financial supporter for Israel’s expansionist project. The false state of Israel would not exist without the United States, and the face of the American empire never changes that fact.

Apple represents the worst parts of Big Tech, and protestors in Seattle performed a “die-in” to bring attention to Apple’s complicity in the genocides in DR Congo and Palestine. The store was successfully shut down, reminding the public there is no business as usual during a genocide.

HAPPENING NOW!!

If you are in the city this weekend head to University Village to support our community as they protest Apple’s complicity Palestine and Congo.

We mark a full year since the world awakened to the ongoing Nakba. our movement for a liberated Palestine, including the student vanguard and advocates for Palestinian political prisoners, faces increasing repression from Western states and Zionist agendas.

As we mobilize in response to the Palestinian resistance, their feeble attempts to silence us show that our movement is WORKING. The U.S. and the Israeli regime recognize they are fighting a losing battle against our collective power.

As Falastiniyat, we REJECT these acts of repression as we uplift the calls of our resistance back home. PALESTINE WILL BE FREE, despite the egregious efforts to silence the diaspora.

LONG LIVE THE INTIFADA!

We stand in solidarity with our freedom fighters, honoring their courageous struggle against oppression and their unwavering commitment to the liberation of Palestine. The breaking of the wall symbolizes powerful resistance, reminding us of the ongoing fight against colonialism. We recognize the deep injustice faced by Indigenous Palestinians, who continue to resist the systematic efforts to erase their existence and seize their lands.

On this day, we remember our siblings in Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen, and Syria. Let us unite in our commitment to speak the truth boldly and foster relationships that deepen our love for humanity. Check the last slide for details about an upcoming community gathering, where we can come together to honor our shared grief.

Palestine will be Free!
Lebanon Will be Free!
Long Live Yemen!
Long Live Syria!
Long live the Resistance!

Resist!

✨✨INVITE FOR SWANA COMMUNITY TO GRIEVE AND COMMEMORATE 365 DAYS OF GENOCIDE✨✨

As we continue to witness the latest phase of the Zionist perpetuated genocide, all we have as a diasporic SWANA community is faith in our resistance back home, and each other.

Falastiniyat invites you to an evening of shared grief, care, food, and mutual understanding. There will be care offerings available during and after the event.

As a community, we deserve a safe space to mourn and to hold the contradictions of this current moment.

From Palestine, to Lebanon, to Syria, to Yemen- we demand an end to the occupation, an end to the Israeli siege on Gaza, and an end to the expansionist and settler colonial project that is the false state of Israel.

🇵🇸

📍Saturday, October 12th 6-9pm

As we surpass 300 days of ongoing genocide, the Seattle Palestine movement is under attack. Join us August 25th, 1pm at Westlake Park to fight back. This march + rally will include a steep downhill portion (1 block).

Around the world, the Amerikkkan empire and all its cronies try to squash peoples’ movements for liberation! Schools, corporations, police forces, and businesses work together to silence and punish those who speak out against zionism and imperialism.

In Seattle, over 40 people are facing criminal charges for disrupting business as usual in solidarity with the Palestinian liberation struggle. Workers have been fired, students banned from graduations and silenced in classrooms, all while Zionist forces have continued their siege on Gaza.

While israel jails or martyrs Palestinians who stand in the way of their settler project, either through their active resistance, or simply for existing in their homelands, the US empire tries to squash our support for the steadfast Resistance!

We will not be silenced! We will not stop until Palestine is free! Justice for our martyrs and long live the Palestinian resistance.

SUPPORT ACTIVIST FACING CHARGES

Local activist need our help! For months, community members have taken to the streets to stand up for Palestinian liberation. As our movement has grown, so too have local efforts to repress and silence those speaking out. Now, numerous activists are facing charges for alleged protesting efforts. While these attempts to scare and silence us will only further galvanize our movement, our comrades are facing mounting financial burdens from these repressive tactics. Help us stand behind those being targeted within our movement!

Funds raised will be used to help cover legal fees, travel costs for court appearances, childcare/eldercare, lost wages, mental health support, and other such associated costs for individuals subjected to this process. The current goal of $30k is based on projected legal fees and associated costs for the coming months. Any excess funds raised will be donated to other local legal support and bail funds. Please check the GoFundMe for details and updates on these fundraising efforts.

Please share this call far and wide within our communities and help us show those being targeted that they are not alone in this fight. The Palestine movement in Seattle refuse be silenced! We refuse to back down! We will not stop fighting for liberation and return!
