Join us for an eyewitness conversation with our comrade, Braedon, who was aboard the Handala — the most recent ship organized by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition — which was attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza. He and other flotilla members were attacked, arrested, and deported by the Israeli military.
The crisis in Gaza is on a new level as the right-wing Zionist Netanyahu government, amid a continued flow of U.S. weapons to Israel, has added death by starvation to the genocidal arsenal it is using against the Palestinian people. Within one month, the entire population of Gaza is projected to enter phase three hunger, and half a million to enter the fifth and final stage. At least 188 people have already been starved to death, including 94 children. Meanwhile, the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a U.S. contractor, delivers food under a hail of bullets, even as 26 countries — including France, Canada, and the UK — have issued statements of condemnation, calling for an end to the war. A growing number of countries are now implementing sanctions against Israel.
What will it take to force the hands of Trump and Netanyahu, end the genocide, and realize the Palestinian people’s right to form their own independent state? What lessons can be gleaned from the struggle to end apartheid in South Africa? Tune in to the discussion.

The Communist Party USA is a revolutionary working-class political party founded in 1919 in Chicago, IL.
The Communist Party stands for the interests of the American working class and the American people. It stands for our interests in both the present and the future. Solidarity with workers of other countries is also part of our work. We work in coalition with the labor movement, the peace movement, the student movement, organizations fighting for equality and social justice, the environmental movement, immigrants rights groups and the health care for all campaign.
But to win a better life for working families, we believe that we must go further. We believe that the American people can replace capitalism with a system that puts people before profit — socialism.
We are rooted in our country's revolutionary history and its struggles for democracy. We call for "Bill of Rights" socialism, guaranteeing full individual freedoms.
