13:06Now Playing"Fire me, assh*le!" — journalist Vijay Prashad doesn't care if his reporting on Palestine gets him "cancelled." Katie and Vijay discuss the devastation of Gaza, why Palestinians are more than just "victims," and the importance of accurately representing Israel’s genocide in the face of repression. Katie also recounts the horrific murder of 12-year-old Mohammed Bardawill, a key eyewitness who testified to Israel’s massacre of 15 paramedics during an investigation of their death.
