Urgent: how to help save a young protester’s life.
I cannot believe how many years we’ve had to recycle this dystopian practice. God, when will it end? #ErfanSoltani
I met a Native American man who questioned the purpose of Free Palestine protests in the U.S. He argued that Palestinians would likely never protest on behalf of Americans, so he questioned why Americans feel compelled to protest for Palestine. From his perspective, this reflects a one-sided sense of solidarity. He also expressed skepticism that protests in the United States have any real influence on events in the Middle East, believing they neither change outcomes nor improve conditions on the ground. To him, these demonstrations feel disconnected from reality and distract from unresolved injustices closer to home—particularly those faced by Indigenous communities.
His point was not rooted in hostility, but in frustration: centuries of suffering among Native peoples have rarely sparked the same level of national or global outrage. That disparity, he believes, exposes how selectively moral attention is applied.
