Today is a special episode. While usually, I try and keep it light even when talking about difficult subjects, we are living in a moment where there is a "conflict" in Palestine going in which the United States has incredible power to intervene and end. It is not rhetoric, in my opinion, that we are living through what we may look back at and definitively see as a genocide. Shadin is a Jordan-Palestinian woman with family that was displaced by this conflict.  I talk with her about the history of Palestine, the colonization of Palestine by Israel with the support of European nations and the US. We discuss why this is such a urgent and grave concern historically and we then discuss what is going now.
