Bad Hasbara 34: Watermelons Us, with Kat...

Matt Lieb
About this episode

This week Daniel and Matt talk to former Media Matter's video producer Kat Abughazalehkat, a Palestinian American political analyst and all around badass about her experience in the last 8 months. We also talk about the killing of over 270 Palestinians by the IDF at the Nuseirat refugee camp and the surrounding hasbara, as well as Israeli appropriation of Palestinian liberation symbols.

ARE YOU IN LOS ANGELES THIS SATURDAY?? Come yell at Biden and his friends/donors on Saturday June 15th at 5pm at the Peacock Theater. Find more info about this rally at JVP Los Angeles's insta page or follow my own page here.
