'A long-awaited and much-needed publication' Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine
'An excellent collection that sets the Gaza genocide in an African and universal context' John Dugard, Emeritus Professor, Universities of the Witwatersrand and Leiden
'Exceptional ... Traces the intertwined legacies of genocide, apartheid, and colonial domination' Issa Shivji, Professor Emeritus, University of Dar es Salaam
'This is an act of remembrance and resistance that reconnects Africa's unfinished liberation to Palestine's ongoing struggle. It demands we see Palestine not as a distant tragedy, but as a mirror reflecting the global architecture of domination' Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, Emmy-nominated journalist, producer and actor
What does true global solidarity look like, and how can it help us fight for the oppressed? Rising for Palestine is a groundbreaking anthology that reveals the deep ties between some of the world's most powerful liberation struggles.
For decades, African nations and movements have stood firmly with the Palestinian people. From anti-colonial uprisings and the Pan-African Congress of 1945 to the ongoing fight against Israeli apartheid and Western imperialism, that bond has endured. Bringing together critical contributions from Palestinian and African scholars, intellectuals, and activists, they confront the intertwined histories of genocide, apartheid, and colonialism, forces that still cast long shadows over the present. Rising for Palestine is a powerful call to action, engaging with these violent and traumatic histories while exploring new avenues for resistance.
Raouf Farrah is an Algerian writer, researcher, and activist.

Suraya Dadoo is an independent writer and researcher based in South Africa. She writes regularly for African media and is the co-author of Why Israel? The Anatomy of Zionist Apartheid.
