Lakota Youths Raising Voices for Palestine
'Our Liberation is Linked'
By International Indigenous Youth Council, Oglala Lakota Chapter
Censored News, March 29, 2024
In a world plagued by injustices and oppression, the youth of the Oglala Lakota Nation raise their voices in support for Palestine. As descendants of a people who have faced centuries of systemic violence and displacement, we intimately understand the pain and suffering inflicted by colonialism and genocide.
Just as our ancestors fought to preserve our way of life and sovereignty, we stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people as they resist occupation and defend their right to self-determination. The parallels between our struggles are undeniable, rooted in a shared history of dispossession, displacement, and cultural erasure.
The ongoing atrocities committed against the Palestinian people, including the recent escalation of violence and displacement in Gaza, serve as a reminder of the urgent need for global solidarity and action. We refuse to remain silent in the face of oppression and injustice.
Together, we raise our voices to condemn the brutal acts of violence and state-sanctioned discrimination perpetrated by the Israeli government. We demand an end to the illegal occupation of Palestinian lands and the immediate cessation of all forms of violence against civilians.
As Oglala youth, we recognize that our liberation is intricately linked to the liberation of all oppressed peoples around the world. By standing in solidarity with Palestine, we reaffirm our commitment to justice, equality, and human rights for all.
Let us unite in our struggle against colonialism, imperialism, and genocide. Together, we can create a world where every individual and community can thrive in freedom and dignity.
