Jimmy Carter:

"The word 'apartheid' is exactly accurate…they are absolutely & totally separated…the Israelis completely dominate the life of the Palestinian people."

"There are powerful political forces in America that prevent any objective analysis…"

In May 2023 the 12th edition of the Palestine Festival of Literature took place in cities across occupied Palestine.

Here, three authors – Ta-Nehisi Coates, Maaza Mengiste and Eve Ewing - reflect on what they saw in Palestine.

All interviews filmed in Palestine, May 2023.

A summary of the entire conversation on Israel:

“I’ll let them kill more Palestinians than you”

“No, I will!”

this is the most pathetic thing i’ve ever read, just fucking use your leverage against Israel to open the goddamn roads and stop sabotaging aid delivery with fake bureaucracy

[Hanna Alshaikh - هناء الشيخ @hanna_alshaikh]

Here is a play-by-play of just a small part of what @CNN has shamelessly called a "chaotic incident" in northern Gaza today:

-Aid arrives in the distance
-Israel begins shooting at the masses they've starved
-People run and duck
-A man asks the videographer "what are you even filming?"
-Another picks up his food that he dropped while running for his life
-It appears that a young man hunches over his aid as another reassures him "it's full, it's full" (presumably to get him to pick himself up and run to safety)
-Someone yells "run!"
-A mother yells out for her daughter, screaming that she is lost

Israel is starving Gaza and massacred over 100 Palestinians. People waited days for a vital lifeline and risked their lives to feed their families as Israel villainously shot at them. CNN calls this a "chaotic incident."
