GLITZY DINNER GUESTS CHOKE ON GAZA CHILD HUNGER PROTEST SPEECH
A fundraiser dinner attended by lots of wealthy influential high-society types is surely exactly the right place to plead for help for the children going hungry in Gaza. But apparently not - as South African-Canadian author Kagiso Lesego Molope found out when she did just that at the ‘Politics and the Pen’ gala in Ottawa. After she used her time on stage to warn the audience that future generations will condemn our inaction (receiving applause, but also many boos and heckles), security removed her from the plush premises (Chateau Laurier). As she was leaving the building, she told a journalist she didn’t want to stay anyway if the people inside didn’t care that children were dying.
Shame on event organisers the Writers’ Trust. One in three children under the age of two in the north of Gaza is severely malnourished, according UNICEF. More than 35,000 Palestinians - many of them women and children - have been kill*d by relentless Israeli attacks since October 7th.
African Stream’s Wambura Mwai talks us through what happened. Let us know your reaction to Molope’s treatment in the comments.
