Rising for Palestine: Africans in Solidarity for Decolonisation and Liberation
This book is a conversation between Africans and Palestinians that explores the
intertwined histories of genocide, apartheid and colonialism across Africa, with particular attention to the direct resonances of Gaza with present-day Sudan, Western Sahara and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and past liberation struggles in Namibia, Kenya, Algeria, and beyond. The authors argue that Palestine is not peripheral to Africa’s struggle — but woven into its historical and ongoing pursuit of justice and liberation. The colonial violence experienced by African nations throughout history and the genocide in Palestine are not isolated phenomena but manifestations of an interconnected legacy of imperialism.
