From SPSC Aberdeen: Asa Winstanley, speaking in Aberdeen, November 21st, plus 4 more events

by aberdeensocialcentre＠riseup.net

Hello Newsletter Memebers. Due to the high amount of actions around Palestine we are sharing the upcoming events from Aberdeen Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign (SPSC). The first event with Asa Winstanley is this evening at the Aberdeen Arts Centre. You will still receive the weekly newsletter tomorrow. Peace and Love. Aberdeen Social Centre 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 yo [1] 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 FRIDAY NOVEMBER 24TH - ABERDEEN HEALTHCARE WORKERS FOR PEACE - CANDELIT VIGIL SATURDAY NOVEMBER 25TH - DAY OF ACTION FOR PALESTINE A really busy day of exciting and important events on Saturday.

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.
