My brilliant friend Tal Zalmanovich wrote a brilliant book: Broadcasting Apartheid: British Television and the Anti-Apartheid Campaign, 1950-1990. This fantastic book offers important lessons about how solidarity can cross borders to fight against oppression and make a difference in the world.

The political imaginaiton of Trump's plan for Gaza is not new. It resonates with the Zionist ethnic cleansing of 1948, the Nakba, and the ethnic cleansing of Native Americans in the United States. We need to train a New Political Imaginaiton.
