New York, New York, USA The People's Forum https://maps.app.goo.gl/GNd9NFuuiTTcranM9 30 May 2025 #Repost @againstapartheid.art OPEN CALL: POETRY FOR PALESTINE Submit to: [email protected] with the subject line ‘poetry call’ | Deadline: May 30, 2025 We welcome submissions that center solidarity with Palestine, that speak with outrage against the atrocities of the last 17 months, and that call for the full liberation of Palestine! In the vibrant spirit of revolutionary struggle and solidarity, we call upon poets and all people of conscience to submit poems dedicated to the liberation of Palestine and which stand with the students in the US facing threats of deportation and all those facing repression for demanding the end to the genocide. As the US & Israel continue their brutal assault, the people’s poetry must speak loudly and clearly. We seek poetry that fights, that dreams, that mourns, that calls people to action — poetry that affirms the indestructible will of the Palestinian people to be free. Poetry has always been a tool of resistance. From the defiant verses of apartheid South African freedom fighters, to the writing in solidarity with Vietnam, to the lyrical poetry of the Cuban revolution, to the unbreakable words of Palestinian poets under occupation — the poets have always borne the responsibility of bolstering revolutionary spirit. We, as Artists Against Apartheid, know that poetry is never a neutral terrain. It is up to writers to stand on the right side of history, to bolster popular imagination of revolutionary ruptures, to make collective art that is deeply tied to the movement and that will fill the pages of history with our resounding call for justice. Poems will be used for materials made by Artists Against Apartheid which could include use in digital materials on our website and print materials like protest placards, newsprint, booklets, banners, etc. Poet’s work that is published will be credited as a part of their submission to this call.
Rethymno, Crete, Greece University of Crete https://maps.app.goo.gl/BUGQbuk9nXozShEp8 30 May 2025 #Repost @thinkofothers_crete Σάββατο 31/ 5 στις 17.00, αίθουσα 1α Πανεπιστημιούπολη Γάλλου, Ρέθυμνο. Διάλογος για την Παλαιστίνη Συντονισμός: Γιώργος Μαργαρίτης Άνοιγμα διαλόγου: Ομάδα Crete for Falastin Συμμετοχή και προβολή ταινίας μικρού μήκους από την Ομάδα Boycott Divestment and Sanctions (BDS). Είμαστε οι Crete for Falastin και καλούμε όλη την κοινωνία να “Μη σταματήσουμε να μιλάμε για την Παλαιστίνη”. Η πρωτοβουλία αυτή συστάθηκε από άτομα που συναντιόμαστε στα κοινά της Κρήτης και συνάμα έχουμε επαφή με τον τουριστικό τομέα στο νησί και την αρχαιολογική επιστήμη και προφανώς μας ενώνει η αλληλεγγύη μας στο λαό της Παλαιστίνης και η απέχθειά μας σε οτιδήποτε πρεσβεύει ο σιωνισμός. Στη Γάζα, σε όλη την Παλαιστίνη, είναι το επίκεντρο ενός παγκοσμίου πολέμου κι εμείς, απ’ τις οθόνες, μάρτυρες μια γενοκτονίας. Αφού υπάρχει ενημέρωση συνυπάρχει και ευθύνη. Όσο κυριαρχεί φαινομενική “αποδοχή” του αυταρχισμού, γίνεται ξεκάθαρο ότι αυτός επεκτείνεται. Θεωρούμε ξεκάθαρο πως αυτό που συμβαίνει στην Παλαιστίνη είναι παγκόσμιας εμβέλειας και όχι τοπικό. Και το στοίχημα-ερώτημα που τίθεται (κανιβαλισμός ή αλληλεγγύη-αντίσταση) απευθύνεται προς όλες τις κοινωνίες και όχι μόνο την Παλαιστινιακή. Η συμμετοχή μας στο συνέδριο των Αρχαιολογικών Διαλόγων που πραγματοποιείται 30/5-1/6 στο Ρέθυμνο, αρχικά, αποσκοπεί στην ανάδειξη της γενοκτονίας σε ακόμη ένα πλαίσιο. Επίσης, αποτελεί ακόμη ένα μέσο να συζητήσουμε τρόπους αντίστασης και αντίδρασης στην ισραηλινή κατοχή/ εγκλήματα, μέσω των πολλαπλών ιδιοτήτων που φέρουμε ως μέλη της κοινωνίας. Θεωρούμε, λοιπόν, ότι η ισραηλινή προσπάθεια παραποίησης της ιστορίας της Παλαιστίνης -ως μέσο εδραίωσης της αποικιοκρατίας και του σιωνισμού στην περιοχή- αφορά και την αρχαιολογική επιστήμη. Έτσι, ανοίγουμε το Διάλογο για την Παλαιστίνη, στη θεματική του φετινού συνεδρίου Αρχαιολογία στα άκρα: Πόλεμοι, γενοκτονίες, πολιτισμικές και περιβαλλοντικές καταστροφές, με σκοπό επιστήμονες και κοινωνία να βρεθούμε σε κοινό τραπέζι. Οι προτεινόμενοι από εμάς άξονες συζήτησης στην παραπάνω θεματική -επιγραμματικά- είναι οι εξής: Η συνέχεια στα σχόλια

Albany, New York, USA Corner of Wolf Rd and Central Ave https://maps.app.goo.gl/rZAJCU96zNTeWREe7 30 May 2025 #Repost @prcalbany 326 people have died from malnutrition or lack of medicine from Israel’s siege since March 2nd Friday May 30th join PRC and @pslalbany at the corner of Wolf Rd and Central Ave 4-6pm Gaza is being starved. This is no accident. Israel blocked all food entering Gaza for nearly THREE MONTHS. The little aid that has recently entered is a “drop in the ocean for what is currently needed.” As famine grows in Gaza, we refuse complicity, we refuse silence. Bring pots and pans- we will evoke imagery with these and empty rice bags to call for the desperate, urgent need for the United States to stop funding and enabling the starvation of Gazans by Israel. We must act now!

Nicosia, Cyprus PRESIDENTIAL PALACE https://maps.app.goo.gl/k4MNAU4QGVUHKEC86 26 May 2025 #Repost @cypruspeacecouncil The Cyprus Peace Council calls on all and everyone, on the peace-loving and progressive organizations, on every person whose conscience is revolting in the face of the daily barbarity that has been ongoing in Gaza. We are calling for a mass protest to condemn Israel's genocidal policy and the unacceptable support that the government of our country is providing to the genocide committed against the Palestinians. MONDAY 26 MAY 2025, 18:30 OUTSIDE THE PRESIDENTIAL PALACE We strongly condemn the Cypriot government's rejection of the revision of the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which was called for by the majority of EU Member-States at the Foreign Affairs Council held yesterday in Brussels. We condemn with repulsion the rejection by the Cypriot government of the UN's appeals for the immediate provision of food, water and medicine to the children of Gaza. It is noted that voluntary organizations and the UN are making a dramatic appeal to save 14 thousand babies and children who risk dying in the coming days if they do not receive food and medicine immediately. Friends, The Cypriot people have lived through war, being refugees in their own country, and continue to live and experience injustice and occupation in their own country. We are above all human beings - and in the face of human suffering nothing separates us. Next Monday, we will send a strong message of solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza and a universal condemnation of the genocidal policies of Netanyahu and his government.

Elbit is one of the largest weapons manufacturers for Israel. Their drones, bullets, and surveillance equipment are being used right now to massacre Palestinians in Gaza. While entire families are wiped out, while children are bombed in their sleep, companies like Elbit continue to profit from genocide. We refuse to stay silent. This is our chance to confront them directly and make it clear: there is nowhere to hide when you profit off bloodshed.
