18:36Now PlayingPalestinians' 'Great Injustice': Historian William Dalrymple on Having Freedom to Speak Out
YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAuthor and historian William Dalrymple joins Mehdi on this week’s episode of ‘Mehdi Unfiltered,’ to discuss his latest book, ‘The Golden Road: How Ancient India Transformed the World.’ The book makes the case that, for over a millennia, India was an international powerhouse that shaped civilizations around it – it was ‘the heart of ancient Eurasia’ – and that its advances and influence have been erased.
The two also discuss Israel’s war in Gaza and why William has been so outspoken while other authors and historians have remained silent. “I have the freedom to speak out,” he tells Mehdi Hasan. “If, as an author, you know something to be untrue and you know a great injustice is going on, it's your duty to do this.”
