BT’s Rania Khalek sat down with Marwan Abdul Al, a member of the Political Bureau of The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and head of the group’s Cultural Department. Initially born out of the Arab nationalist movement, the PFLP adopted Marxism-Leninism and distinguished itself as one of the leading organizations in the resistance to occupation. The interview was filmed in a refugee camp in Beirut, prior to recent events. They discussed the current state of Palestinian resistance in the face of the occupation, the changing world situation, how the PFLP views religion, the strategic tasks of uniting the left, international solidarity and more.
BreakThrough News is building the media arm of the movement. We tell the untold stories of resistance from poor and working-class communities — because out of these stories we will construct a different narrative of the world, as it is and in real time.
Think to yourself, is this article something that would be published anywhere other than BreakThrough?
Five mega-corporations dominate the media landscape — controlling 90% of what we read, watch and listen to. People’s movements in every corner of the globe are changing history and shifting consciousness. But these movements barely receive any coverage from the corporate media. They need visibility. They need amplification. They need a media arm to break through.
Working-class people deserve better, we deserve media for and by us. We are not funded by billionaires or corporations – we are funded by you. Without you, BreakThrough would not be possible, so become a member and build the media arm of the movement with us.
