They discuss the decision to leave South Africa, the conversations with their families, the preparation, the journey by sea and land, and the extraordinary people they encountered along the way. What happened when activists encountered Israeli forces?
What was Israeli detention really like? What happened to convoy activists detained in Libya? And what sustains your faith when your freedom is taken away? If ordinary people are willing to put themselves at risk to stand with Gaza, what are we willing to do?
This is SUMUD. Not as a hashtag. Not as a slogan. As action.
