A Shift in Symbolism
For more than twenty years, the dark legacy of the so-called War on Terror was epitomized by detainees cladded in orange at Guantanamo Bay. That stark image became synonymous with alleged injustice and the controversial measures taken during that era.
New Emblems of Resistance in Britain
Today, a new chapter unfolds on British soil. Red uniforms have replaced orange, now worn by members of Palestine Action as they engage in direct, determined protest against what they describe as ongoing genocide. These activists face imprisonment and restrictions, reframing their struggle with a fresh symbol of defiance and commitment.
A Continuing Battle
The evolution of these symbols underscores a broader narrative of resistance and the enduring fight against perceived oppression. While the orange worn by detainees once illustrated a regime of control, the red now serves as a banner for those confronting what they view as systemic injustice.
