I'm unaware of a secret 'anglophone' continuity, but the efforts in solidarity against the occupation of Palestine in the United States have not hesitated to make these connections. BDS has been most effective when it has been connected to concrete targets that are involved in the perpetuation of the occupation. These sorts of campaigns are a concrete way of challenging the structures of domination of late capitalism, rather simply observing from the hotel abyss.
