Al-Thawabet for non-Palestinians - RIF Podcast ep 31

The Psychology of Resistance: Voices and Solidarity

In this episode of the RIF Podcast, hosts we delve deep into the Al-Thawabet principles as they apply to Solidarity with the Palestine National Liberation Movement. We discuss the principles of self-determination, restitution, and anti-colonialism. We explore the moral complexities surrounding Palestinian resistance, emphasizing the importance of centering Palestinian voices and rejecting normalization with oppressive forces. We also touch upon the need for solidarity movements to align with the National Liberation Movement of Palestine and scrutinize the role of imperialist narratives in shaping global perceptions. We underscore the necessity of armed resistance under occupation and close with an urgent call to action to support Palestine Action prisoners on hunger strike.
