PALESTINIAN RESISTANCE AND CENSORSHIP
Protests across the world in solidarity with Palestine are building a support movement for the Palestinian resistance and cause, showing leaders that people from the US to the UK to Yemen and Jordan and beyond stand with the Palestinian people in their fight against the US-backed Israeli occupation. These protests are changing the shape of media coverage and influencing popular opinion and the debate over the issue.
At the same time, social media companies like Twitter and Meta have been attempting to censor pro-Palestinian content. One video listing the hospitals that Israel has bombed was taken off Instagram after gaining 12 million views. The Twitter account for Palestine Action US was not followable for many days. But information continues to spread quickly, keeping the solidarity movement going.
We’re joined by Janine Hourani of the Palestinian Youth Movement in the UK to talk about these movements and developments.
