We often get trolls in the comments asking us why we post about Palestine and why Africans should care?
The answer is simple: as Africans, we can view the Palestinian struggle for self-determination and justice as analogous to our historical struggles against colonialism and apartheid. This shared history of fighting oppression fosters a sense of solidarity against imperialist forces.
But the late honourable Rev Dr Martin Luther King, Jr, (1929-68) has a much better answer than that featured in this week’s Wednesday’s Wisdom, ‘Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.’
