In Memoriam and Gratitude — Assata Shakur (1947-2025)
“It is our duty to fight for our freedom.
It is our duty to win.
We must love each other and support each other.
We have nothing to lose but our chains.”

On today’s Palestine Post, we review news headlines from Israel’s assault on Gaza with Khury Petersen-Smith, Michael Ratner Middle East Fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies, where he researches U.S. empire, borders, and migration.
We also speak with Cynthia Kaufman, an organizer with Jewish Voice for Peace, part of a coalition that has been pushing for over a year for Alameda County to pass an Ethical Investment Policy. It is a comprehensive policy that would prohibit the county from investing in entities that violate human rights, eg. produce tools of occupation and genocide as in Israel/Gaza, operate security or correctional institutions, and harm the environment.
Show your support for the Ethical Investment Policy, which will be up for a vote on October 3 https://actionnetwork.org/letters/let-alameda-county-supervisors-know-you-support-an-ethical-investment-policy
