Join us for new 2026 documentary and a letter-writing workshop!
Fundraiser screening of "We Won't Be Silent, Resisting The UK's Arms Trade With Israel".
Ticket monies will go to the International Solidarity Movement. A P^lestinian-led movement committed to resisting the long-entrenched and systematic oppression and dispossession of the P^lestinian population, using non-violent, direct-action methods and principles. Volunteers with ISM go to P^lestine to act as witnesses and provide testimony of the violence enacted by settlers and the state.
After the screening, we will have a short Q&A with director Medyan Dairieh and a representative from the Stop L3Harris Campaign as well as a prisoner letter-writing workshop on following the regulations for contacting people imprisoned by the British state for resistance against the arms trade.

This screening is in collaboration with StopL3Harris - the campaign against the local Brighton L3Harris arms factory which is the only place in the world that makes bomb release mechanisms for the F-35 planes used by Isra-hell to bomb P^lestine.
