Organizing Asian America

From Asian America to Palestine: A Teach-In on Zionism, Empire, and Hindutva

July 17, 2024 • By 18MR Staff



From Philly to the Philippines to Palestine, our struggles for liberation are interconnected. Join us to hear from Asian Americans organizing locally, nationally, and internationally against Zionism, US imperialism, and Hindu Fascism (Hindutva)! 

Thurs, July 25
1-2:30 pm PT / 4-5:30 pm ET
RSVP: bit.ly/AA2PALI 

Prominent Asian American elected officials like New York’s Grace Meng continue to align themselves with Zionism. The Asian American Foundation (TAAF), one of the largest Asian American philanthropic organizations, allows Zionist head of the Anti-Defamation League, Jonathan Greenblatt, to sit on their board. Across the ocean, we’re seeing parallels in the rising Hindu Fascist movement with Christian nationalism at home. 

RSVP for From Asian America to Palestine: A Teach-In on Zionism, Empire, and Hindutva to learn how Zionism is showing up in our Asian American communities and find ways to fight back for Palestine.

Our presenters will include:

  • Karamvir Bhatti, Asians for Palestine NYC
  • Nikhil Arur, Hindus for Human Rights
  • Sharmin Hossain, 18 Million Rising

Co-sponsored by ASATA, Asians for Palestine NYC, and Hindus for Human Rights.
