Manage episode 443628225 series 2825639
The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) and its partners will march to Parliament in Cape Town TODAY, calling on the government to implement the Apartheid Bill. The group is pushing for legislation to enforce the UN Apartheid Convention, which South Africa ratified in May 2024. In a statement, the PSC says the Bill aims to hold Israel accountable for ongoing violence in Palestine, where over 41,000 lives have been lost since October 2023. The marchers are urging South Africa to lead the fight against apartheid by passing the Bill and supporting Boycotts, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) measures. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Palestine Solidarity Campaign Chief Coordinator, Usuf Chitke.
