We stand with Palestine |
|
Here N Queer acknowledges the suffering and pain felt by the people of the occupied land of Palestine. We stand with the Palestinian people who are suffering from genocide at the hands of Israel, which has been aided by the United States government for 70+ years and disproportionately affects Palestine’s queer community. We call for an immediate ceasefire, the liberation and recognition of a free Palestine, and the dismantling of the systems of apartheid and illegal occupation. America’s queer community cannot fully celebrate queer joy and liberation when the US government is supplying billions of dollars to Israel. We call upon the rest of the LGBTQ+ community to continue fighting for Palestinian justice until Palestinians can live a life free from persecution and hate. The team at Here N Queer will continue to educate themselves and support movements to free Palestine.
