Members of SOAS Detainee Support will be speaking at this event, as part of Israeli Apartheid Week at KCL.

Thursday 1st March, 6pm at Kings College London.  Facebook event here.

Organised by KCL Action Palestine and Demilitarise KingsWhat are the connections between the detention and deportations of asylum-seekers in the UK and the administrative detention of Palestinians under settler-colonialism? In what ways is the Israeli military judicial system and the UK Immigration & Asylum system predicated on racial and colonial violence? Which are the companies profiteering from and demanding incarcerated bodies, both in Palestine and in the UK?

Join us for a night of discussions & education on why it’s crucial that alongside BDS and the call to end Israeli apartheid we need to focus on local campaigns that fight to end detention, stop deportations & strive for freedom of movement for all.
