I was wrong about #Gaza. . . heres why being black in America made me think twice, says Brittney Cooper in Salon. Wed like to invite her to join Interfaith Peace-Builders African Heritage Delegation to Palestine/Israel: ifpb.org/africanheritage As a black person attuned to the processes of colonization, slavery and apartheid that built the West on the backs of black and indigenous people, I cannot help seeing these acts of war and terror as interconnected. There is no way to morally justify the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip or the West Bank. Therefore, I must redirect my outrage from organized resistance groups or “terrorists” toward the powerful nations that make people vulnerable to these militant extremist groups.
