I was channeling the sentiments of the truly courageous people I have been following and have spoken to in Gaza.
Yesterday, I interrupted an event where President Joe Biden was speaking in Belvidere, Illinois, to demand that he call for a cease-fire in Gaza . Over 10,000 Palestinians , half of them children, have been killed by Israeli bombardments in the last month. Entire bloodlines have been wiped off the face of the Earth. And the day I confronted Biden, a harrowing video surfaced of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza evacuating their cities on foot.
She interviews them, makes them smile, and puts dozens of names and faces to Gaza. The only thing keeping me up at night is knowing that my country is aiding and abetting a genocide in Gaza and that the bombs being dropped on Palestinians say, “Made in the USA.” Israel has a record of assassinating prominent journalists and has associated important photojournalists in Gaza with Hamas in recent weeks.
