This week on the show, Ahmed Alnaouq from We Are Not Numbers tells us about a remarkable new book of poetry and essays collecting 10 years of writing from Gazan youth. These are stories of life, loss, and defiance from a generation determined to be seen as more than statistics. On the Resistance Report, Jon Elmer brings us the latest resistance operations from Tuffah and Beit Hanoun while the Yemeni armed forces shoot down more US reaper drones. And in the newscast, Nora Barrows-Friedman brings us the latest from Gaza and the West Bank as well as international activists targeting the flow of US military cargo to Israel.
Produced by Pierre Loiselle, Nora Barrows-Friedman and Tamara Nassar. Music by Greg Smith and Macklemore.
