National Jericho Support Statement for the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network


The National Jericho Movement expresses its support for the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network’s right to exist and its human rights obligation to build solidarity with Palestinian Prisoners and with all Political Prisoners in the United States and other countries. Every Palestinian arrested or kidnapped and incarcerated under the apartheid regime called Israel is a Political Prisoner. When a people enter a country already occupied and self-governed and usurps that land, continues to encroach upon and oppress the inhabitants, bulldozes their homes and forces them to live in increasingly smaller areas – globally now recognized as outdoor prisons – and over the 76+ years of its colonial rule has incarcerated millions, with thousands being children, every prisoner becomes a Political Prisoner because of the injustice inherent in the system itself.

Since 2011 Samidoun has made the world aware of the injustice, torture, deaths, and gross human rights violations of Palestinian Prisoners. As of October 15, 2024, the United States Treasury Department imposed sanctions on Samidoun, baselessly accusing it of acting as an international fundraiser for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and thus designating it as a “specially designated terrorist” organization. Jericho also condemns the listing of Palestinian writer and organizer Khaled Barakat as part of the same attack.

 

According to international law, the Palestinian people have the right to resist occupation, including through armed struggle.

 Jericho will continue to support Samidoun’s work in uplifting and supporting Palestinian Prisoners, as it will support all efforts to shed light on political cases, prisoners, and campaign for their freedom in the United States as well as abroad. And Jericho asks that all movement organizations that champion the rights of the oppressed do the same.

We The People RESIST: Cuba, Palestine, Haiti and Puerto Rico in Solidarity - César Omar Sánchez

Updated, May 24th, 2024 On May 18th, I along with three comrades spoke at The People's Forum about the US Global Hegemonic Domination and its influence on other countries that are committing destructive and genocidal actions against other countries. (From left) Tamar Helmi, Berthony Duport, Terrence Freeman, and César Omar Sánchez What do Palestine, Cuba, Haiti, and Puerto Rico have in common? It's all part of a colonial project that has been going on for decades, some even centuries. The word solidarity nowadays is a word that gets tossed around too much during discussions. Many people don't know the true meaning of the word and yet use it for all the wrong reasons.  Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines solidarity as a feeling of unity between people who have the same community of interests or goals based on  certain  objectives and standards .  However , when it comes to standing up against the Capitalist system and Hegemonic countries like the United States,...

From Cuba to Palestine to the Hands Off Uhuru Movement - The Voice of People Continues to Amplify!

May 30th, 2024 By Cesar Omar Sanchez "To resist radical evil is to endure a life that by the standards of the wider society is a failure. It is to defy injustice at the cost of your career, your reputation, your financial solvency and at times your life. It is to be a lifelong heretic. And, perhaps this is the most important point, it is to accept that the dominant culture, even the liberal elites, will push you to the margins and attempt to discredit not only what you do, but your character."  - Chris Hedges The U.S. Empire can no longer sustain itself with all the proxy wars occurring overseas. However, mainstream media and all major social media platforms are trying their best to suppress the truth that is going on around the world. This parasitic and destructive system that continues to break down the social fabric of humanity, drives people into despair and isolation. Speaking and showing support from Cuba to Palestine to all nations around the globe, we all know that we...

NYPD Fails It's Attempt To Provoke Violent Incident At Israel Day Parade

By Veteran Black Panther Sadiki "Bro. Shep" Olugbala Below Photos Courtesy Of Ridhima H. Hegde  Organized by a new Anti-Zionist Organization named JAWS "Jews Against White Supremacy" neither the NYPD, sellout politicians nor the biased mainstream media were able to claim their usual bullshit by claiming that this past Sunday's "No To The Israel Day Parade" Counter Protest needed to be shut down because it was Anti-Semitic. So instead, they resorted to their usual tactics of allowing a group of Pro-Israel Zionists to leave the parade to stand directly in front of the No Parade Protesters and then sending a masked agent provocateur with an obviously just made-up "Kill The Hostages Now" sign into the protest. Contrary to what the New York Post story & video report portrayed this masked person, who is totally unknown to anyone in the group, was a part of the JAWS protest; It was our own security that immediately confronted the individual, ide...
