USPCN Presents Nakba 75 — U.S. speaking tour featuring Chief Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela, grandson of the great
Nelson Mandela!

2023 marks theĀ 75th anniversary of theĀ NakbaĀ (“Catastrophe” in English), when over 750,000 Palestinians were banished from their homes upon the formation of the settler-colonial state of Israel. Today, there are close to five million Palestinian refugees who continue to demand theirĀ Right to ReturnĀ to the homes and lands from which they were exiled.

To commemorate the Nakba, the U.S. Palestinian Community Network (USPCN) and the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (NAARPR) are organizing aĀ U.S. Nakba Day 75 tour, to take place from May 15th – May 20th, 2023, featuring honored guestĀ Chief Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela,Ā elected member of the South African National Assembly representing the African National Congress ā€“Ā and grandson of the late Nelson MandelaĀ ā€“ as the tourā€™s keynote speaker.

Mandela, also the tribal chief of the Mvezo Traditional Council, holds a degree and a post-graduate diploma in Political Science and International Studies from Rhodes University.Ā Unabashed in his support for the Palestinian people, and a progressive who advocates and fights for justice for oppressed people across the world, just like his grandfather did, Chief Mandela speaks regularly about Palestinian liberation and resistance to zionist settler-colonialism at conferences, rallies, and other events across the world.
