[08/11/25 IG Repost]
We are thrilled to announce our first WORLDWIDE WINTER FESTIVAL OF RESISTANCE MUSIC!
To celebrate reaching 40 members worldwide, bands from all across the Punks Against Apartheid network will be putting on benefit shows in different member regions from early November to the end of December. Some are planned entirely by PAA and others in conjunction with local partners, but all funds raised will go towards friends & causes in Palestine! Within PAA, we will be focusing on our Bi-Weekly Highlight families during this period, individual ‘matched’ families (although some fundraisers will go towards Palestinian organisations).
FEATURING:
Dykes & Friends (no IG)
Peanut Butter (no IG)
@ahmedeidmusic
@punkrarxsolidaria
@knotwork_crusher_crust
@rezekimuzik
@tenuepunx
@mysteryfleshpitband
@contracharge
@anarchists4palestine
@fantasma_fantasia
And possibly more TBA!
You may have already seen us sharing individual posters from the shows, but this is the first time we are announcing the entire series as falling under the Worldwide Winter Festival umbrella. We are so excited to be able to make this happen, and we will have more info & art dropping soon. If you are interested in attending, want to participate, or help put on a show with us–get in touch!
As we never tire of saying: mutual aid is not liberation. But you’re kidding yourself if you think that mutual aid and permanent fundraising are not a baseline expectation of the solidarity movement at this time. We hope to continue expanding our fundraising for our friends & comrades in Palestine while we also politicise our communities into the political action that is necessary to support Palestinian resistance.
We ain’t no nihilists. History mandates relentless optimism–if you’re a hater, get fucked! FREE FREE PALESTINE!
