Episode description

As the siege on Gaza continues and pro-Palestine protests continue in Houston, what impact do international events have on the city? Lead producer Dina Kesbeh talks to University of Houston professor Dr. Abdel Razzaq Takriti, Dr. Daniel Cohen, history professor at Rice University specializing in Israel and Palestine, and activist Hannah Thalenberg from Jewish Voice for Peace Houston about the local, state, and national implications of international events and why it matters for elected officials to speak out about them.
