Threads of Resilience | Discussion | Multi-Scalar Resistance: How the world solidarity movement for Palestine can decolonize Berlin

December 14, 2023 21:00 - 22:00

Event organized by AATMA

How can we move together from a culture of fear, censorship and militarization to that of collective care, knowledge and transformation?

AATMA warmly invites you, in grief, persistence and solidarity, to join us for a public discussion tomorrow. It is a great honor to have with us trenchant lawyer Nadija Samour, member of Palestine Speaks and Global South United as well as medical doctor Qassem Massri and event organizer Zaina Shreidi. Together with the public, we will be reflecting on multi-generational mobilizing experiences for Palestine, in light of present urgencies and the resurgence of fascism in Germany.

This event is part of the Threads of Resilience Festival

Given the current situation and urgency to express, we decided to co-organize a community-led and collectively curated 3-day festival “Threads of Resilience” from 14-16 December at Oyoun.Those include a press conference, bazaar, panels, film screening, talks, exhibition, workshops, concerts, healing session, theater, puppet show for children, and parties. With this festival, we want to reflect on and learn from movements of resistance, resilience, and solidarity across the world and come together for three days of ephemerality and collaborative archiving. We want to address and speak out against repression, silencing, instrumentalization, and division. We need to continue to empower, promote, and celebrate pluralistic perspectives from, with, and intersectionally marginalized communities.Admission is based on free donation (nobody will be denied entry if they cannot donate). All proceeds will be given to organizations in support of victims of racist police violence and to organizations giving legal support to people threatened with deportation.
