Kashmir is not just some people’s political hobbyhorse. It’s one of the most important freedom struggles of our times because it encapsulates Islamophobia, the ‘war on terror’, the rise of fascism, genocide. Because of Kashmiri solidarity with other struggles, it can provide a framework & model for unity in action with other freedom struggles, including the Palestinian, Rohingya, Uyghur, & antiwar struggles. If you aren’t standing in some way with Kashmir, you’re missing the full meaning of ‘First they came for the Muslims…& then they came for me’.
