Ahmed describes the weekly 18-month March as a 'Scream for Life' by the people of Gaza in this illuminating Al Jazeera. But what impact did the Great March of Return have on the outside world ? Did it draw global attention to the suffering of the people of Gaza? Or was it grossly misrepresented in the media? And what impact did the March have on the people of Gaza themselves? The UN reported that over 270 Palestinians were killed and 36,143 injured (over 7,000 with live ammunition), with hundreds of amputations and tens of thousands of traumatised participants and family members. Can it really be considered a success? More recently the International Criminal Court announced it will be investigating Israel for potential war crimes, including crimes committed against Palestinians participating in the Great March of Return. Is this a source of hope for Palestinians in Gaza searching for justice? Join us for this very special DeepDive with one of today's essential voices, please share widely!

Sign up to our newsletter, Deep Dive Daily: https://bit.ly/3LrCUxE Twitter: @pdeepdive Instagram: @pdeepdivegram   We're looking at the threats the movement has faced in the UK especially and how they might be connected to Israel’s ongoing settler-colonialism on the ground. With attacks on NGOs, human rights defenders and activists in Palestine itself and with apparent attempts to permanently conclude the Question of Palestine in Israel’s favour through Trump’s Deal of the Century and defunding of UNRWA in particular, we’ll be looking at how to renew effective solidarity with Palestine in an atmosphere of crackdown and repression. We’re delighted to be joined by two prominent campaigners and organisers with many years experience at the heart of the Palestine solidarity movement, Ryvka Barnard and Akram Salhab. Ryvka Barnard is the Head of Civic Space at War on Want Akram Salhab is a British-Palestinian organiser and migrant justice campaigner. He was recently the lead voice featured in Channel 4’s documentary examining the Palestinian experience of British colonialism.

Larry Wilkerson for Palestine Deep Dive. Here they ponder whether any significant change will occur in the relationship between the United States and Israel following Biden's successful presidential election. Larry suggests there will likely be no significant change in official policy, but with Trump, Pompeo & Kushner gone that is significant change in itself worth celebrating.
