HOUSE RESOLUTION CONDEMNING PALESTINIAN HR MOVEMENT IS BLATANTLY WRONG

Chicago, IL I Colorlines

Eyewitness Palestine delegate Kristian D-B wrote a piece featured in Colorlines about the House resolution, passed on July 23, which overwhelmingly condemns the BDS movement for Palestinian rights.

Kristian writes: 

"I know firsthand the impact of anti-boycott resolutions. In 2015, I was racially profiled, falsely accused, and arrested by Israel while trying to enter the West Bank to speak about Black support for Palestinian rights, including BDS. Since then, Israel has passed a law banning any proponents of BDS—a nonviolent, free speech movement—from entering Israel or the occupied West Bank.
The new House resolution gives cover to these right wing attacks on the right to protest."
