YouTube Description
as posted by the channel“White supremacy has infiltrated the Black community with a narrative that Palestine don’t got nothing to do with us. And that’s a lie from the pit of hell.”
Community organizer Erica Nanton explains how police repression on the south side of Chicago is connected to the genocide in Palestine.
Nanton spoke as part of a press conference following a hearing on HB2723, an Illinois bill that seeks to repeal the 2015 anti-BDS bill signed by then-Governor Bruce Rauner. That law made it illegal for pensions to invest in companies that boycott Israel, effectively holding companies hostage to doing business with Israel under the threat of losing hundreds of millions of dollars in pension investments.
