ASA WINSTANLEY - SPEAKER TOUR EVENT
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 21ST IN ABERDEEN
Join us to hear from acclaimed journalist and writer, Asa Winstanley on
Tuesday evening (7.30pm) at Aberdeen Arts Centre. Book your space:
https://Asa-SPSC-Aberdeen.eventbrite.co.uk [2]
Asa Winstanley has been writing about Palestine and the Israel lobby
since 2005. He has been an associate editor and reporter with the
award-winning website The Electronic Intifada for more than a decade. He
spent two years living under Israeli occupation in the West Bank.
In an electrifying account, as meticulously researched as it is
fast-paced, Winstanley shows how Labour's anti-Semitism crisis was
manufactured by those who feared Jeremy Corbyn's support for the
Palestinian cause and a broad progressive agenda.
Drawing on new interviews with many of those victimised in purges the
Labour leadership claimed were necessary to tackle anti-Semitism,
Winstanley exposes a highly effective operation that saw the Israeli
embassy, the right-wing of the Labour Party, and the mainstream media
acting in concert to prevent a socialist from entering Downing Street.
*SIGNED COPIES OF ASA'S BOOK WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT THE
EVENT* https://Asa-SPSC-Aberdeen.eventbrite.co.uk [2]
On Wednesday, November 22nd (7pm), we will hold another "Get involved"
workshop - this time at Aberdeen Trades Council, 22a Adelphi, as well as
online. If you haven't already let us know you're interested to join,
send us an email at aberdeen(a)scottishpsc.org.uk

TUESDAY 21ST NOVEMBER 1930
BOOK LAUNCH - ASA WINSTANLEY, "WEAPONISING ANTI-SEMITISM: HOW THE ISRAEL
LOBBY BROUGHT DOWN JEREMY CORBYN"
Asa Winstanley has been writing about Palestine and the Israel lobby
since 2005. He has been an associate editor and reporter with the
award-winning website The Electronic Intifada for more than a decade. He
spent two years living under Israeli occupation in the West Bank.
In an electrifying account, as meticulously researched as it is
fast-paced, Winstanley shows how Labour's anti-Semitism crisis was
manufactured by those who feared Jeremy Corbyn's support for the
Palestinian cause and a broad progressive agenda.
Drawing on new interviews with many of those victimised in purges the
Labour leadership claimed were necessary to tackle anti-Semitism,
Winstanley exposes a highly effective operation that saw the Israeli
embassy, the right-wing of the Labour Party, and the mainstream media
acting in concert to prevent a socialist from entering Downing Street.
Scottish PSC has been a target of the Israel lobby long before Corbyn
stood for Labour leadership and is at the fore in fighting back against
Police Scotland and Crown Office attempts to smother our rights to
campaign in support of Palestinian rights. Asa's work is invaluable in
providing a wider context for Israels efforts to defend its apartheid
regime.
Please note, this event is free, but Scottish PSC welcomes donations to
cover event costs (such as venue hire and speaker travel) - suggested
donation £5, payable at checkout.
SIGNED COPIES OF ASA'S BOOK WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT THE EVENT

21st October, 2pm, St Nicholas Square. The demo is endorsed by Aberdeen
Trades Union Council, CND North East, and Aberdeen Social Centre.
As you may be aware there was an arrest after the recent SPSC rally.
This has spurred Aberdeen Social Centre to asking our friends from the
Scottish Community Activist Legal Project (SCALP) if they would provide
some more Legal Observer and Know your Rights training for folk in
Aberdeen. Could you let us know how many folk from your organisation
would be interested in either training please?
