26 July, Brussels: Rally against police violence targeting the Palestine movement

Friday, July 26
6 pm/18h
Bourse
Brussels, Belgium

We call for a big and strong mobilisation against police; the enemy of the people and the protectors of racist and fascist power!

Police violence is nothing new in Belgium and especially not against marginalised communities. The Belgian police has a history of killing people of colour in their cells, prisons and in our streets.

On the 25th of July we did not only see an increase of that violence but we also saw once again that this violence is targeting Palestinians and the people who dare to speak up against the complicity of the Belgian state in the genocide of the Palestinian people.

We saw innocent people being cornered in the streets, beaten and arrested by the police for wearing kuffiyes or a bracelet with Palestine written on it.

At the same time people waving the Zionist flag are left at peace. Enough! Now more than ever it is clear how far the Belgian state is willing to go to protect the interest of the Zionist state!

We condemn police violence and we condemn the Belgian states complicity in the genocide!

It is our duty to fight the oppressive systems here where we live, only this way we can help our comrades in Palestine who are fighting the oppressive systems they’re fighting.

Join us this Friday 6pm at Bourse against police violence and for a free Palestine from the river to the sea!
