Why Palestine Matters to Us All
Award-winning journalist Sana Saeed shares a powerful reflection on solidarity, justice, and the unbearable reality of witnessing Gaza’s devastation. In this deeply personal talk, she connects her own community’s history of displacement with the Palestinian struggle, reminding us that Palestine is not just land or people; it is the bedrock of a global fight against colonialism and oppression.
Don’t miss this moving perspective on why solidarity means showing up; even when it’s heavy.
