Against Apathy is an event bringing people together to mobilise, get activated, meet others and realise that we all have a role to play in creating change and resisting. This edition will focus on how to resist Zionism and imperialism, locally and globally.
The event will feature 14 individuals actively involved in resisting Zionism in many different ways, spaces and formats, who will share a bit about what they do and how it might be possible to get involved.
Speakers:
Sara Masry ~ actress, writer, filmmaker
Tyrone Scott ~ Head of Campaigns at War on Want, newly elected hackney Councillor
Laith ~ Palestinian youth movement
Ray ~ Forensic Architecture’s Gaza team
Jacob ~ Doikayt Collective, Jewish Bloc for Palestine
Dania ~ palestinian lawyer from Jerusalem &
Manon Louis ~ research and investigations
Zeashan ~ Artist, former INGO worker
Gabriel Speechly, Producer - kaddish (how to be a sanctuary)
Ala - Pal Arts Collective
Maud ~ migrants’ rights lawyer
seb ~ journalist, fundraiser
clara ~ fundraiser, organiser
Sadhbh - queers for palestine
We will then break into small groups to get to know each other, discuss how we could use our own skills to do more or get active in new ways, and learn more.
This will be followed by live music by Pink Seasalt and g0d’s fave, and there will be food and drinks available all night. The event will also be a fundraiser (pay what you feel) with all profits going to grassroots orgs and families in Lebanon, Iran and Palestine.
