In March, Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) 2020 will be held under the theme, United against Racism, advocating for Palestinian rights in the context of global struggles against racial oppression. Palestinians and progressives worldwide are resisting the Trump-Netanyahu “deal of the century” not only because it is designed to entrench Israeli apartheid, but also because it embodies a trend of expanding global racial repression. 

As Israel’s far-right regime partners with authoritarian and racist regimes worldwide, supplying them with “field-tested”, deadly military and security technologies and doctrines, it is more urgent than ever to join together our struggles for freedom, justice, equality and dignity.

Israel is sharing racialized policing tactics with the US; supplying weapons to genocidal regimes in Rwanda and Myanmar; providing technology and equipment to militarize US and EU borders; selling $1 billion in arms annually to India, fueling repression in Kashmir; and providing weapons and technologies for militarization and racist police violence by Brazil’s fanatic Bolsonaro government.

IAW 2020 will take place around the world primarily between 16 March and March 21, the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, which commemorates the massacre committed in Sharpeville in 1960 by the South African apartheid regime. Progressive, anti-racist groups in Europe have already called to coordinate IAW events with activities around the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.

Governments worldwide and the United Nations have defined apartheid as a crime against humanity that must be suppressed and punished wherever it is perpetrated.

Join with groups fighting all forms of racism and take to the streets for IAW 2020, to send the message that apartheid and racism were unacceptable in South Africa, are unacceptable in Palestine today, and are unacceptable anywhere.
