This interactive workshop will critique intersectionality and examine gender and sexuality in relation to Palestine. By focusing on the roles of Israeli settler colonialism and Western imperialism in gender and sexual oppression, as well as looking at frameworks for resistance and liberation, this workshop goes beyond the pink-washing framework to deepen our solidarity.

This Palestine Mini-Series offers a cohesive understanding of the Palestinian struggle through four 1-hour sessions taking place every other week. The final session focuses on the current period in the Palestinian struggle, focusing on the consequences of the so-called ‘peace process’ and on current forms of Palestinian and global resistance.

Makan Programmes & Outreach Manager, Sarona Bedwan, will participate on a panel discussion alongside Rebecca Vilkomerson, Rabbi Alissa Wise, Ben Jamal, and Asad Rehman following a book talk featuring the themes of their new book, Solidarity is the Political Version of Love: Lessons From Jewish Anti-Zionist Organizing.

In this interactive workshop, co-developed with Diversity & Ability, we examine concepts of disability and disablement in relation to Palestine. Through growing our understanding of disability justice in Palestine, we explore how disability justice is not only a human rights issue but also an integral part of the broader anti-colonial movement.
