CLUB SPOTLIGHT

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS CLUB?

Students for Palestine Adelaide are a group of students standing unequivocally with the Palestinians and against Israeli oppression.

WHAT DOES THE CLUB DO?

Our club fights to condemn the historic and on-going genocide, apartheid, land-theft and oppression of the Palestinian people by the state of Israel.

We organise solidarity actions with Palestine, agitate for our universities to cut ties with Israel, and raise awareness of the Palestinian cause.

WHY IS THIS CLUB IMPORTANT?

There is a strong, right-wing Zionist lobby on campuses around Australia. We need organisations that can counter Zionist distortions and give confidence to the Palestine solidarity movement in Australia.

Our campuses are intimately tied to the apartheid Israeli state. At Adelaide Uni, students do research for weapons companies like BAE Systems and Lockheed Martin who develop specialised technology used by Israel to wage war against Palestine.

Students in Australia affirming their solidarity with the Palestinian struggle and opposing our own government’s support for Israeli’s crimes is an important contribution we can make to the global struggle against racism. HOW CAN PEOPLE GET INVOLVED IN THE CLUB?

Anyone can get involved by contacting us on Facebook. Our page is called “Students for Palestine Adelaide”.
