Hello em poc comrades! Today I bring a quote from the Samidoun Network on the ceasefire in Gaza and the hostage exchange, the “Flood of the Free”.

Our strength and our unity comes from standing together against repression, and for liberation, not in allowing our enemies to cut us off from one another through a politics that seeks accommodation within genocidal imperialism, self-censorship and subordination. It is, at the core, the armed resistance, the Palestinian prisoners, and of course, the people of Gaza, who exposed Zionism and imperialism and brought down all of their military objectives, who are opening the doors of freedom for the heroic prisoners of the cause of Palestine, and who promise a Palestinian future that will be determined only by the people and not by its occupiers, invaders and enemies. This is an indelible stamp and a historical moment upon the road to liberation and return for all of Palestine, brought ever closer.

And from RNN Prisoners:

The current exchange deal, “Flood of the Free,” represents a milestone in our struggle and an added victory to the long march of liberation, affirming that the will for freedom is stronger than all the jailer’s chains.

Long Live Palestine! From the River to the Sea!

As always, this thread is em poc only.

    Do people not know about things like house slaves who did things like cooking and looking after children? And those same slaves were also the ones who frequently poisoned their masters’ food? Like…regardless of whatever they were “given,” it still doesn’t make up for being owned and there’s a reason they joined in revolts.

    Then there’s stuff like Roman slaves who were sometimes given nice clothes and jewelry to wear so their masters could show off how much money they had. Those same slaves still joined Spartacus’ rebellion because being property is fucking horrifying.
