Скачать или смотреть 'Gates of Hell': Chris Smalls Describes Israeli Military’s Brutal, Racist Treatment

“What really frustrated me is that our tax-paying dollars are going towards giving these young adults these big, powerful weapons to kill innocent people.”

Chris Smalls, Amazon Labor Union co-founder, spoke with Zeteo’s political correspondent Prem Thakker on Black and Palestinian solidarity, getting intercepted by the Israeli military on the Handala and what’s next for the Gaza Freedom Flotilla. Smalls dives into the racist treatment he faced in Israeli confinement from military officials choking him to putting their knee on his back. He also details the emotions he felt getting so close to Gaza.
