Today we will hear a forum that the establishment tried to censor by denying it a venue. But Union Theological Seminary opened its doors and welcomed the event into its chapel. Columbia professor, Rashid Khalidi, journalist and author Ta-Nehisi Coates, and civil rights attorney Michelle Alexander speak out against the genocide that Israel and our Government are perpetrating in Gaza with our money and in our name.
The proceedings were paused several times by resounding applause, which you will hear and perhaps want to join.
Of particular note: Rashid Khalidi has family residing in Gaza who, at the moment he speaks, have been ordered to vacate or prepare to die. Despite this, his very first recommendation is to visit Palestine!
This Week In Palestine (a weekly part of Truth and Justice Radio) is an award-winning three-quarter-hour segment of news from Palestine and discussion of issues relevant to the Palestinians' struggle for freedom from Israel's brutal military occupation and colonization of their homeland. It speaks from the point of view of Palestinians and those who care about them. It's a regular part of Truth and Justice Radio, aired Sundays 6-10am ET on WZBC 90.3FM, Newton, MA, streaming live and archived for two weeks at wzbc.org; Truthandjusticeradio.org has a link to This Week In Palestine archives back thru 1-6-2008. (TJR airs occasional Palestine coverage IN ADDITION to that provided by This Week In Palestine.)
