info_outlineOn Sunday October 13th anti-apartheid activist Na'eem Jeenah presented a lecture at McGill University in Montreal entitled "The African Apartheid and the Palestinian Plight."
During his lecture Jeenah made mention of various practices of the South African government during apartheid and showed how these practices share commonalities with the current Israeli government's treatment of the Palestinian people.
Jeenah, a South African Muslim, is also an author, journalist, community leader, and post-graduate student, and is currently on a North American speaking tour as the spokesperson for the South African based Palestinian Solidarity Committee and the recently formed International Anti-Apartheid Movement Against Israel. According to a communique from the organizers, the purpose of the tour is "to draw a clear understanding of the reality of occupation and exploitation currently being inflicted upon the Palestinian people by the Israelis.
Jeenah highlighted a set of six demands, including the immediate and urgent international protection for the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, dismantling of all Jewish settlements in the Occupied Territories, and the right of return and reparations for 4.5 million Palestinian refugees.
