South Blog - December 2008/January 2009

Salaam

The last two months have been very busy indeed. Most Isocs in December started planning for their Islamic Awareness Week (IAW). Themes, topics, speakers (international and national) for IAW were being decided and planned out.

December saw the tragic onslaught on Gaza, beamed daily with the heart breaking pictures of Palestinians being savagely murdered. Isocs across the country engaged in response to the crises. Isocs organised fundraising events, talks on Palestine, organised fasts and took part in protests and demonstrations. Isocs were supplied with Boycott Israel Cards and Know Your Rights booklets to distribute during talks and Jummahs. There was an overwhelming demand for the Boycott Cards and it seems that people are starting to believe in the Boycott Campaign.
