6. Wealthy people may (or may not) create jobs, but if it weren't for the people who fill those jobs and do the work, there would be no wealth.
7. (00:01:11) It refers for the need for equality for all inhabitants of historic Palestine That someday the nakba can be undone. See the great Al Jazeera piece on 11-2 that explains the history of the slogan. The controversy has been fabricated to prevent solidarity in the west with the Palestinians.
8. (01:11:34) "Free Palestine" being cast as violence against Jewish people is akin to 'War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength" ... there is a serious problem with flattening all criticism of Israel to antisemitism, completely ignoring generations of solidarity and activism from Jewish people who know that Palestinian and Jewish liberation are intertwined.
9. (01:12:10) As many prominent rabbis have noted. Zionism as an ideology is inherently antisemitic in assume the plurality that all Jews think the same way and ignores the mass diversity of Jewish voices
10. (01:12:33) Also so much zionism is Christian zionism, which strangely enough seems to also include a lot of white nationalist antisemitism. Weird!
11. (01:17:12) Hell yes to everything y'all are saying. Free Rashida
12. (01:19:07) Her constituents are largely African and Arab Americans. More rashidas are needed
