Queer people around the world have been standing up in solidarity with Palestinians as they face ethnic cleansing and genocide. Here are some resources to help you understand why, and to situate this moment in time within the overlapping struggles for queer and Palestinian liberation. They explore issues of Israeli pinkwashing, its links to imperialism and empire, as well as what it means to be queer and Palestinian.

These resources predominantly come from Palestinian and Jewish queer people themselves and range from academic pieces to more accessible ones and there is a list of Instagram accounts to follow at the end for those of you that prefer information in social media form. Pick whatever format works for you, and remember no one is free until we are all free!
