Ali
Abunimah is
the guest on this week's edition of the podcast known
as The Chauncey DeVega Show.
He is an internationally known human rights activist
and author whose
work focuses on the struggle for the Palestinian peoples' full
rights and freedom. Ali
Abunimah is
also the co-founder of the essential website Electronic
Intifada.
In this great conversation, Ali and Chauncey talk about many
issues. They include the global colorline and human rights, the
United States' militarized police, the relationship between Israel
and America's police and military, the Israel lobby and American
politics, the limited space in the corporate media for
truth-telling, and how to maintain hope and positivity while doing
social change work.
Chauncey also talks about his recent essay on racial battle
fatigue, colorblind white liberal racism, and McKinney, Texas's
police thuggery against young black and brown children at a local
pool.
