​For the past 68 days, there has been (bar a handful of water, food and medicine trucks) a total and complete centrally imposed blockade on anything going in or coming out of Gaza, including communications. This is an intensification of the long-standing israeli siege of the area amidst over 75 years of colonial occupation. This has effectively cut Gaza off from the rest of the world, and is a further example of the lengths that the colonial power will go to ensure that Palestinians cannot communicate with each other. To discuss the blockade, pummelling and isolation of Gaza and how the incessant violence impacts the distribution of material support and humanitarian aid we will be joined by Oxfam Australia's Director of Programs Anthea Spinks. Oxfam are an international aid organisation who believe that in a wealthy world, poverty is unjustifiable and preventable, that the present state of inequality and injustice must be challenged, and that with the right help, people can change their lives for the better.//
