🚨 RIGHT NOW opposite Labour Party HQ in London. We’ve turned their street into Jabaliya camp in Gaza. A genocide is happening, but the Labour government is supplying weapons, intelligence and diplomatic cover to the perpetrator. Protesting this is not terrorism.
Building wrap of Jabaliya camp in Gaza opposite Labour Party HQ reads "Protesting this isn't terrorism"

The way traditionally Thanksgiving has been celebrated erases the indigenous history, the way they were pushed out and forced out of their homes and lands, it celebrates colonialism and white settlers and a one-sided view of history. Let’s all reflect on that please.
