This week, Roqayah and Kumars introduce an interview with former Palestine Action UK prisoner and current Prisoners for Palestine campaigner Audrey Horno, who talks to Kumars about the criminalization of Palestine Action UK, now a proscribed terrorist organization in that country, and the rolling hunger and thirst strike undertaken by incarcerated former members still fighting the Israeli death machine. 

Audrey and Kumars also discuss the movement's success in shutting down Elbit Systems factories in the United Kingdom as well as another recent victory by the imprisoned organizers, many of whom ended their hunger strikes after the UK government canceled a proposed contract with Elbit. Audrey asks listeners in the UK and in the US to put pressure on the British government to agree to a meeting with the last remaining hunger striker, Umer Khalid, as he prepares to begin a thirst strike in protest of their refusal to do so. 

Find out more about how you can support Prisoners for Palestine and continue the movement by organizing for direct action at prisonersforpalestine.org as well as directaction.org (if you're in the UK) and global.palestineaction.org (if you're not). 

For those located in the US, the phone number for the British Embassy in Washington is (202) 588-6500. Call and demand that the UK government meet with Umer!
