📣 New film showing of Jenin Jenin 7.30pm on Tuesday the 12th of November.

📍Presuming Eds, 114 London Rd Brighton BN1 4JG

🎥 Jenin, Jenin, a 2002 documentary film directed by Mohammad Bakrthe, explores the aftermath of an invasion and massacre at Jenin refugee camp in the west bank during the second Intifada, a popular uprising which took place across Palestine between 2000 and 2005

Four months ago, we were scheduled to show Jenin Jenin at Afrori, a local independent bookshop located at the Brigthelm Centre.
However the day before the film viewing, it was cancelled after local zionist Heidi Bachram posted about the showing on X, harassed the venue, reported the showing to the police and complained to the charity commission.
All of this due to the film and promotional posters' discussion and use of ‘intifada’

Intifada is an Arabic word!
It means “to shake off” or “uprising” and this year has seen a massive crackdown on its use.
This crackdown includes our own comrade Maya who was arrested for using the phrase ‘victory to the intifada’, and is having her trial next year on March the 25th.

This criminalisation of an Arabic word is not only racist. It is an attempt to criminalise solidarity with Palestine!

✊️We oppose all attempts to censor Intifada!
We stand unconditionally with the Palestinian people and their internationally recognised rights to resist occupation by any means necessary including armed struggle!

📣 If you oppose censorship and the criminalisation of activists, join our film showing 7.30pm on the 12th of November at Presuming Eds.

🇵🇸 Victory to the Intifada! 🇵🇸

Today, comrades from FRFI, Young Struggle and Stop L3harris held a rally against the ongoing  state repression in Brighton and the police harassment of our comrades.

After speaking and engaging with the public, we marched to the office of Peter Kyle, Labour MP and member of Labour Friends of Israel.
The British government run by the Labour Party continues to support the genocidal Zionist state and is responsible for the escalating attacks on the working class and the Palestinian movement here in Britain.

Join our public meeting tonight at the BMECP centre, 10a Fleet Street to discuss the ongoing repression of the Palestinian movement in Brighton, and also hear from one of the SOAS2 on their upcoming retrial .

It's critically important that we stand united against these state attacks and build a movement against state repression here in Brighton

United we stand. Divided we fall.

The location of the 5pm meeting on the 15th has been changed!

New Location: BMECP Centre, 10a Fleet street, BN1 4ZE

The rally point for 12pm will remain the same

Join us this Monday 7.30pm for our pamphlet launch at the Actors.

With the rise of state racism here in Britain, and the Labour Party boasting of over 60,000 deportations in just two years, it's more urgent than ever to build an anti-racist movement here in Britain, just like in Minneapolis.

Yet, in the wake of the Together Alliance and the Carnival against fascism here in Brighton, much of the left today is hyperfocused on the threat of fascism and the far right.
But what does fighting fascism actually mean? And is it a useful analysis for building a revolutionary movement today on Britain?

In this launch, we will be exploring what fascism actually is, the history of fascist movements in Italy and Chile, their relation to capitalism and the socialist movement, and the nature of anti-racist uprisings and the need to build a movement against state racism.

So join us this Monday at the Actors for a lively discussion of these questions and the launch of our new pamphlet, Fighting Racism: the state and the streets!
