Cinema Resistenza: Resistance 101- Forging a new movement
About
FREE EVENT - Donations on the night for Palestinian refugee familyResistance 101: Forging a new movement for Palestine in Italy - Chris Hedges
With little sign that the genocide in Gaza is abating, dockworkers in Italy’s major port cities have taken matters into their own hands. Organizing strikes and mass demonstrations, they are moving to block the shipment of arms to Israel — a direct rebuke to the paralysis and complicity of governments and international institutions that have failed to confront the slaughter.
While the devastation continues, these workers are offering something rare: material resistance. By leveraging their strategic position in the global supply chain, they are demonstrating how labor power can be wielded against war and occupation.
The question now is whether this “Italian way” — rooted in solidarity and industrial action — will spread across the imperial core. Can dockworkers and unions elsewhere follow suit? And if they do, could coordinated disruption help bring an end to the genocide?"
CONVERSATION AFTER THE FILM with MICHAEL COLEMAN
Michael Coleman has supported the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) challenges to the illegal and inhumane siege of Gaza since 2010, participating in Freedom Flotilla II and Freedom Waves in 2011.
In 2013 he worked on Gaza’s Ark Trade not Aid project in the Gaza Strip and since then has been either land team or home team for nine nonviolent direct challenges of the siege. He is currently working on a tenth that will see the FFC combine with Global Sumud Flotilla & Thousand Madleens To Gaza to finally #BreaktheSiege
