A meeting discussing the situation in Palestine will be held on Saturday in Margate.
A panel of speakers will lead the discussion, including Naomi Wimborne Idrissi, co-founder of the Jewish Voice For Labour, and journalist Ahmed Alnaouq, founder of the youth-led Palestinian nonprofit project in the Gaza Strip.
Other speakers will include Shahd Hammouri, lecturer in law at the University of Kent, and Palestinian human rights activist, Samir Eskanda.
The organisers of the meeting, Voices for Palestine, say their aim is to “bust through the myths” spun by media and politicians.
Amber Trentham, one of the organisers, said: “Our panellists will share their insights and their experience relating to the past, present and future of Palestine. The intention is to educate and lionise our community. We want to weaponise people with the truth – and the confidence that the truth fosters.”
“Voices for Palestine” will take place on Saturday 6 January at 5pm in the Cliftonville Community Centre, admission free.
Naomi Wimborne Idrissi was expelled from the Labour Party in 2022 after speaking at an event held by now-proscribed group Resist.
