YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Last weekend, the Academy Award for Best Documentary () went to a film that still lacks a U.S. distribution deal. 'No Other Land' is a powerful look at Palestine's southern West Bank, and has received widespread acclaim. So what's holding it back from being seen in theaters across America?

Brittany is joined by B.A. Parker () , cohost of NPR's Code Switch, and professor and television producer Dr. Maytha Alhassen () . Together they look at why one of the most criticallypraised movies of the year seems to be experiencing a kind of soft censorship.

Plus, in honor of Lady Gaga's new album Mayhem, Brittany shares her favorite Gaga moments.
