SUMMARY:Mandela: U.S. Nakbar Tour
DESCRIPTION:Mandela Nakbar Tour Comes to Minneapolis\nTuesday\, May 16\, 2023\, 7:00 PM\nCowles Auditorium\, Humphrey School of Public Affairs in Minneapolis\nU of M West Bank Campus\n301 S 19th Ave\, Minneapolis\, MN 55455 \n2023 marks the 75th anniversary of the Nakba (“Catastrophe” in English)\, when over 750\,000 Palestinians were banished from their homes upon the formation of the settler-colonial state of Israel. Today\, there are close to five million Palestinian refugees who continue to demand their Right to Return to the homes and lands from which they were exiled.\n\nTo commemorate the Nakba\, the U.S. Palestinian Community Network (USPCN) and the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (NAARPR) have arranged a brief U.S. Nakba Day 75 tour\, to take place from May 15th – May 20th\, featuring Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela\, elected member of the South African National Assembly representing the African National Congress – and grandson of the late Nelson Mandela – as the tour’s keynote speaker.\n\nMr. Mandela\, also the tribal chief of the Mvezo Traditional Council\, holds a degree and a post-graduate diploma in Political Science and International Studies from Rhodes University. Unabashed in his support for the Palestinian people\, just like his grandfather\, he speaks regularly about Palestinian liberation at conferences\, rallies\, and other events across the world.\n\nMandela\, whose family fought against South African apartheid\, is coming to Minneapolis to speak out against Israeli apartheid and for the rights of Palestinians. The Anti-War Committee and the Twin Cities Coalition for Justice for Jamar are hosting this event to also draw attention to the cooperation between US police forces\, including the Minneapolis Police Force\, and the Israeli Defense Forces.\n\nInitiated by the Anti-War Committee and Twin Cities Coalition for Justice for Jamar. Co-sponsored by Council on American Islamic Relations\, Jewish Voice for Peace -TC\, MN BDS Community\, MN Immigrant Rights Action Committee\, Northfielders for Justice in Palestine\, Students for a Democratic Society @ the U of MN\, Veterans for Peace Chapter 27 and Women Against Military Madness.\n\n\n	Related
