Featuring:

  • Rana Nazzal Hamadeh, Palestinian artist and filmmaker

Event Overview:

The Education for Liberation Collective invites you to a popular education event designed to help us better understand the political, institutional, and corporate connections that sustain Canada's complicity in Israeli apartheid.

Key questions to be addressed:

  • Why does Canada choose to maintain its complicity in Israeli apartheid?
  • What are concrete examples of complicity in the Canadian economy, arts and culture, and beyond?
  • What are some local strategies and opportunities to join together to collectively challenge this complicity?

We are a multiracial group of educators and activists brought together through the solidarity movement for Palestinian liberation. Our mission is to create accessible, community-based education to advance struggles for liberation on the unceded, unsurrendered Algonquin Anishinaabeg land we call home.
