This is the flag of Sudan, there's currently a genocide happening there as well but please distinguish this flag from the Palestinian one

THIS is the flag of Palestine and her people, look at it and commit both flags to memory. Call for justice in both countries with their proper flags.

🇵🇸 From the second ESC semi-final: man waves a small Palestinian flag during Israel's performance, and is immediately escorted out by security

I've seen people try to excuse this by saying there's always been a list of approved flags for Eurovision.

And yes, while it's true that ESC has had an official flag policy for years now—with nation flags either limited to those with UN status, or to participating countries—it's also something that has only been selectively enforced in the past, and never which the kind of hostility we're seeing in Malmö right now.

The first time I remember hearing about the Eurovision flag policy was in 2016, when a Sami artist was representing Norway. The Norwegian broadcaster of ESC, NRK, reported then that the Semi flag was "technically" banned from the ESC arena, but that, according to ESC's the former head of communications, it would be up to the security at the arena whether they enforced this ban or not:

The music competition's rules state that it is only permitted to use flags from the participating countries, from countries that have previously participated, or from countries that are full members of the UN. It is therefore not allowed to wave the Sami flag when Agnete goes on stage on 14 May in Stockholm. - Technically speaking, that is correct, as the Sami flag is not part of the UN or is represented in the Eurovision Song Contest. I understand that the question can arouse emotions as Agnete has Sami roots, says Paul Jordan, communications manager for the Eurovision Song Contest to Sameradion in Sweden When asked what might happen if the public shows up with a Sami flag during the competition, the communications manager says that it will be up to the doormen to decide. - Technically, it is not allowed according to the current rules. Right now I don't know what would have happened at the entrance. Technically, it can be confiscated, but I cannot guarantee that, says Jordan to Sameradion.

I could write several paragraphs about just how revolting it is that the Sami flag was even banned to begin with (they reverted it in 2016, after months of backlash), but the point I want to drive home right now is that there is nothing "apolitical" about the EBU's flag policy, or the way it is enforced.

Reminder again to BOYCOTT EUROVISION 🇵🇸

Don't watch, don't vote.

#from the river to the sea palestine will be free #eurovision #esc 2014 #boycott eurovision #also i just wanna quickly add that agnete wasn't the first sami artist at eurovision #she wasn't even the first sami artist to represent *norway*#(that was mattis hætta with 'sámiid ædnan')#so the fact that the flag was still banned...#also.. only allowing diaspora artist at esc to fly the flag of the country their representing? there's nothing 'apolitical' about that #the entire esc flag policy is like a microcosm of european racism

December 8, 2023 - Hundreds of people gathered in Guernica, Basque Country, to form a human flag in solidarity with the Palestinian people, as air raid sirens filled the air. The town of Guernica became symbol and a rallying cry against war crimes and the slaughter of civillians after German and Italian planes bombed the town for Franco's fascists in 1937, during the Spanish civil war, killing hundreds of innocent civillians.

really disappointing that bunjywunjy had to be pestered twice just to quietly remove their reblog after using their huge platform to encourage garbage like raving about the lesbian estonian soviet flag and how 'new pride flag just dropped' so people could go 'ooh pretty' about a flag that was forced onto us by ppl who wanted our culture gone and oppressed us for about a century in total if not more.

to say nothing or not show anything of the truth about that flag and quietly remove the reblog felt more like it was done out of obligation (and you didn't agree) rather than care for the subject matter that is still a fresh wound in our country's memory. it's only been 33 years since it ended.

I'd rather you make the mistake about something you didn't know (eastern european history is easy for westeners to overlook, because we're not a big country like them, we're not england or france or spain or germany) and admit/apologize for said mistake or even just outright state that you don't actually care rather than say nothing and quietly remove something so that people would stop talking about it

#regardless of your opinions on communism the ussr was a tragedy for much of eastern europe #and we still suffer under its effects today #did you know that when the ussr occupied us that estonians couldn't even be the majority of the population in our own country?#they flooded in and tried to make our country like them #they arrested anyone who wore the colors of our flag #and all while they settled into our countries (it wasnt just estonia but amywhere they occupied) they forcefully deported us out of it #into moving steel boxes of the trains in the harsh winter #people packed in like anchovies with barely any room to die from the starvation #but nobody talks about that #nobody cares about eastern europe #nobody bothers #so i get american tankies telling me garbage like how im just reciting 'CIA propaganda'#as if i give a fuck about what some yankoid organization in some unrelated country says #our families lived that shit #at the time i was born the only people who couldve gotten an estonian birth certificate were still children #what do you think our mothers and fathers and grandmothers and grandfathers lived in?#people only care that a flag looks pretty #and not what the flag actually meant

Secondary Programming Material About Flags ...

I use this book for my long-term project "The Flags Of The World" ...

Example for obtaining information about two countries, e.g. Botswana and Namibia. I get more information about the corresponding countries by using Wikipedia on the Internet …
