I was working as a cashier when I was a week away from the birth of my first son. A Palestinian woman demanded that someone get me a chair and made sure I was comfortably off my feet before she left the store. No one has ever done something like that for me in my entire life and I never forgot it. She didn’t know me but it didn’t matter because we are supposed to take care of each other.

How did you know she was Palestinian?

Love this 🇵🇸✊️
As a South African I can definitely agree that this worse than apartheid. Disgusted by Isra*l and the West. 🇿🇦🇵🇸
Worry about your own country.
@@genarosalazar2818 Worry about your own comments.
@@genarosalazar2818 TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!!!!!! 100%
Modern South Africa is also worse than apartheid. It's a borderline failed state with rolling blackouts for decades.
@@AlbertBormant
Rolling blackouts have nothing to do with Apartheid.
Hi, I’m an indigenous person from very close to Tulsa. I’m only in Oklahoma because of the Indian removal act and the Trail of Tears. The amount of similarities between the Trail of Tears and the Nakba has been one of my biggest motivators to advocate for Palestinians since I started learning more in the early 2010’s. It’s unexplainably disturbing to see how much worse it keeps getting. How much can you ask a group of people to endure before they snap? Smh
Thank you for saying this. And God bless your indigenous ancestors. Indeed, there are many parallels between the 2 situations.
I’m a part Mi’kmac from the northeast region of America… I feel you! I also agree
But Jews are the native Americans of Judea.
Like your ancestors also owned slaves, people think native Americans are innocent people but couldn't be more wrong.
I don't have palestinian friends and for me, what is happening in Gaza and in the West Bank it's not right. When I'm reading the comments on CNN, FOX etc.. and people just show empathy for Israel and their children, when I'm reading Israel must don't stop bombing and fighting when everyone have in front of them eyes the level of destruction, suffering and dead of civilians including children, I feel so bad.. it's really unbelievable. You don't need to have palestinian friends.. you just need to have a heart 😔💔
I know. I stand with Palestine, even if my friends and family look at me like I'm crazy when I try to talk about it here in the Philippines. I would certainly avoid CNN and Fox coverage on the matter if I were you. Israel literally reviews any footage they are allowed to air, by contract, so the bias is very very clear. Hold strong for Palestine!
I cancelled Fox from my feeds years ago then cancelled CNN about a year ago. I've been following NBC which I believed was unbiased but got disgusted by how biased they have been with this very matter. I cancelled them right in the middle of a news video and looked for other unbiased ways to get informed. This is how I landed on Al Jazeera and despite my sadness seeing the actual truth, I am happy to get real news.
@KeliK1 Are you following the Novara Media? It's a RUclips channel from UK, they make very well-spoken podcasts and lives talking about this matter aswell. Recently I also found Secular Talk channel here on RUclips and I'm really enjoying.
Thank you, Carina. What you wrote is so true.

What's Happening in Gaza for the past 75yrs made South African Apartheid looks like a minor. Which in itself is mind boggling!
Just a remark - Gaza was a part of Egypt between 1948-1967. And no Egyptian ever thought to create a "Palestinian state" there. Why? Because they know it is absurd. And Israel asks Egypt to take Gaza back for the last 45 years - Egypt doesn't want this garbage.
Because it was rather minor in the grand scheme of things. Modern day South Africa is a borderline failed state.
@@AlbertBormanthello, still bitter about the end of the apartheid in south africa, are we?
What did I say that was not true? The idea that South Africa will collapse in the next decade or so has become very mainstream. Just look at the rolling blackouts they have had for more than a decade. @@melancholybaby92
South Africa is not doing so well@@melancholybaby92
Watching Shaun's feed the last six weeks has been rough, but I am so grateful for the light he has been shining on Gaza. Please don't look away, people--these are human beings in unimaginable pain and we must bear witness.

An honest & informative discussion that you won't see on tv from the MSM. Thank you Al Jazeera.
just as a note on settler colonys the only reason america canada & australia arent considered older settler colonial colonys is we already basically completed genocide here :(
although it still goes on 14x more likely for first australian children to be removed from family 15x more likely to go to jail, 40% of juvenile pris pop but only 3% of countrys pop. canada & USA arent much better
cant let what happened and continues here happen in palestine they still have a chance theirs still enough of them leftper capita there
Since a VERY long time, Shaun is doing a blessed job in helping bringing the truth out of Gaza/WB and share it with the world. We need more people like you sir. We are here to support you.
Thank you Shaun King for a moral voice in the desert where mainstream media is failing us.
😂😂😂 Shaun King the grifter 😂😂😂
I started following Shaun King after the execution of George Floyd. I don't know how Shaun does this work long term. It's so extremely heartbreaking .
Shaun is a world treasure. God protect him and his family 🙏🏽🕊️🇵🇸
Very enlightening and so refreshing g to hear Mr. King call out what's really behind this horrible attempt to annihilate a people.
Did he show any interest in the issue while thousands of "Palestinians" were slaughtered in Syria? I think no. Because Arab lives matter only if they are killed by the Jews. The story is a hatred towards Israel and the west, not caring for the "Palestinans".
Im Half Lebanese half Croatian from S.A ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ thank you !🇭🇷🇿🇦🇱🇧
Great show. Excellent analysis. This should be shared all around the world.
For all people doubting whether or not they can make a change, remember that Shaun King is one man who helped change the narrative around Palestine to 're-humanize' its people.
No, no he didn't. Only idiots ever so it any other way.
One man can change the world

@@derekroberts1693 'We' being you and your fellow Klan$men.
Every muslim country should educate their students on nakba so they understand what Palestinians have gone through and their freedom struggle so they don't get brainwhased by western media
That is totally irrelevant nothing matters except what happened on October 7th and everything on October 7th and 7th October 7th and even before October 7th is strictly the responsibility of Hamas
Israel controls 0.2% of the Middle East. Arabs - 99.8%. And there are 2 million Arabs in Israel. How it is possible that all the Arab problems are at these 0.2%, while at the other 99.8% there a plenty of completely failed states - Syria, Yemen. Libya, Lebanon, Somali, Iraq... Isn't it crazy?
@@onejohn2.26.And what about all the Palestinians that have been murdered before October 7th? And what about all the civilians killed since October 7th? For this, you will have no answers.
@@headishome8452 "And what about all the Palestinians that have been murdered before October 7th" EZ. Hamass. Since they don't want peace, they bring their people eternal catastrophic war. The Gazans voted poorly when they gave the genocidal totalitarians power of their lives.
@@onejohn2.26.😂
Excellent interview❤
Our bleeding hearts for All innocent people who lives or dies in this barbaric genocide has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with who you are or where you come from..... If the human race have forgotten to feel compassion, empathy, respect and dignity to their fellow men, without thoughts about the religious, cultural differentcies, or the colours of our skin, why, tell me why are we even here?
The love of many will grow cold and lawlessness will abound just before the great day of God Almighty.
Any loss of Life is tragic, whether it be children or adults. 13,000 people have been slaughtered in Gaza by Israel and the West Bank is also being targeted with over 200 people killed by police and settlers.
Shaun King..as always.... never ceases to amaze me. He is such vaulable and appreiciated voice and always, ALWAYS highlights the Palestinians and their freedom at any chance he gets. Thankyou Shaun
We love you❤
Free Palestine 🇵🇸 🇵🇸🇵🇸
Yes, two months ago, my family and I had no idea of the horrible history of Israel crimes against Palestine. We've now educated ourselves as well as followed daily unbiased news. We are very sad and upset but feel helpless. We can't even vote against Biden as we're not American but we won't be going to Starbucks, MacDonald's or drink Coke, Pepsi or Fanta.
It’s good that many more people are finally waking up to see Israel’s crimes and the evil that it is
Exactly. Voting for Biden is out of the question. I could never desecrate my being by voting for ByeDone. Also not voting for Trump. Independents will probably get the most votes they've ever gotten in the history of the government.
Could the next election have 2 presidents with legal issues. One in US courts and the other in the international court?
@@Wiggy321Oh wow, I never even thought of it that way before. So one might be convicted of treason, the other of war crimes. I can't tell who is worse anymore😢
I would like to see what the Republicans do when in office, you don't even understand how tame Biden's actions are already. Imagine Trump in his position, you might regret your words
Overall the conflict is over 10km away from the us mainland, I doubt it will influence the common worker over in america
Isreal government supported South Africa apartheid to the last day saying White South Africans have right to defend themselves against black South Africans. And USA added Nelson Mandela to terrorist list until 2008
Just ask your self what does this show you.
Whom the real terrorists are😢
❤❤❤Shukran for this discussion. From South Africa
So logical, intelligent and eloquent. Thank you to both of you
Thank you to both, you guys are brilliant!!!
Thank you Shaun 🇸🇴❤️🇵🇸
What a great man Shaun is. I’m overwhelmed the immense work that an activist is doing and ashamed to see how Arab leaders are complicit in Gaza genocide. Keep your struggle Shaun. Palestine will be free
I'm white was raised a Republican in the US and I have become a Democrat and subsequently have disapproved of every administration since my birth 80 years ago. We as a nation have taken charge of the world against most of the rules we have agreed to in the United Nations, I don't understand how or if this will end without an increased Middle Eastern war and a loss of this country to the Christian right choreographed by Donald Trump.
Are you saying that you think Trump helped to orchestrate this? I’m truly asking? Why is Biden helping so much?
If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.💯💯👌👍❤Desmond Tutu

Thank you, Shaun King. I started following you after Colin Kaepernick's story. May God protect you & family
Thanks Al Jazeera for inviting guests to give a voice for those who are silenced.
I've researched ww2 and consequently Palestine Israel situation for 15yrs. THIS ANGERS AND UPSETS LIKE I HAVE FAMILY THERE. It breaks my heart. Israel needs stopping like Hitler was stopped NOW
Mr. King could not have said it any clearer for anyone to understand what is being done to the Palestinians, unless one is wearing blinders.
Continue to walk the journey and be blessed.

Thank you for your clear and eloquent explanations of the Palestinian issue. Keep fighting 🙏
Thank you for bringing Shaun King, such a pleasure to be able to hear him speak about these subjects
Love you Brother King! You're life is your message. 🇵🇸❤💚🖤🇵🇸
Worse than Apartheid.
I grew up under apartheid. If it's worse than South Africa that's surely horrific. Desmond Tutu said so.
Bishop Tutu not only compared Israeli treatment of Palestinians to apartheid, he said, to him, it was _worse than apartheid!_
Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sean you have been a beacon of Truth! You are a legend and your support will never be forgotten! ❤
It’s really nice to hear from Mr. King regarding Palestine issues. When someone knows about the situation and history of Palestine, only he or she knows what it is like to be. It’s so heartbreaking to see innocent children being killed by Israel. Absolutely, Genocide in human history is committed. May Almighty help brothers and sisters in Palestine.
Shaun king is a Muslim now... Alhamdulillah...May Allah preserve him..
Brother Shaun King, welcome to Islam... May Allah bless you...
I also read about Tulsa…
I recall first hearing the term "settlers " used in Hollywood-produced Western movies to refer to American gun-slinging settlers otherwise called cowboys who often were depicted fighting and massacring the indigenous American people, who were disparagingly called Savages.
But why are those movies called "Westerns"? Because white Europeans, British to be exact, who fled religious persecution in England, had originally settled along the Eastern Seaboard. But as settler colonies grew, they decided to head West, which began first as a trickle but the discovery of gold saw turn into a cascade.
Most of America's indigenous people lived on the vast western plains, and in their push west, attracted by gold, white European settlers often and systematically gunned down those so-called Savages, primitively armed with bows and arrows - in much the way white European/Israeli settlers today gun down the "brown" indigenous people of Palestine for the sake of taking their land.
Settler violence against the true and original American people is what is largely depicted by Hollywood's Western movies, and in everyone, the settlers/cowboys are always presented as the victor/"star" and the always-defeated Indians as being the villain.
From its inception, American colony society was racist and to this day continues to be racist. When in the 18th century, white Europeans got on ships and boats to cross the Atlantic to America, racism and bigotry were passengers on board. Thus, from the start, racism was part of the DNA of the white settlers who fled slave-dealing England to America, and to this day racism remains a part of America's DNA; therefore, none should be surprised that Israel, America's protégé, is an inherently racist nation, a condition which, without external or international pressure, it will not easily get rid of.
America isnt the least bit racist unless you're talking about blacks and Mexicans, they are very racist, especially the blacks. And this gaza thing isnt remotely like the American and Canadian story. Not remotely. Europeans came to north America over 200 years before the revolutionary war because there was room for them European jews went to israel in a matter of a few years with the intent to drive out or kill the Palestinians, not live next to them .
❤Native Americans ❤ are truly understanding of Palestinians. Im sure Black and Aztec people will understand because of their own history with settlers.
We all have a history with "the settlers" we get dehumanized and our land took, or in other cases took from the land and put into slavery. Defamation is a part of the dehumanizing. "Terrorists " "Savages" the old tactics used in Israel are coming from old leadership. We were peacefully living before the settlers.
When will the colonizers be held to account for all the kidnapping here in the USA? Native American people and children. Putting us in a zoo over seas for ppl to look at.
The truth is coming out. God is displeased. ❤ The news is refusing to report the atrocities committed by Israeli solders/American men, dressed up as Israeli soldiers?
No internet or electrical??? Why to hide crimes. No medical? Why so they die of disease 😔 this is exactly like the attempted extermination of Native American and Black African Americans!!!
❤ always wins. ♥️

Interesting - from 10:38 or so - that many US police departments get trained by Israeli advisers and how that feeds back into US policing.

The Tulsa Race Massacre started on the morning of June 1st 1921 and continued over the next several days. The Black section of Tulsa - Greenwood - comprised 34 city blocks. All were razed to the ground with some 250 deaths. The most insightful part of the sorry episode related to the archives of Tulsa newspapers - all have a gap of several days in that first week of June. It wasn't that the papers weren't published THEY WERE PUBLISHED BUT WERE SUBSEQUENTLY REMOVED FROM ALL ARCHIVES TO WIPE THE EVENT FROM HISTORY. They weren't just put in a safe or something either. They were destroyed. This is why - even now when the massacre is common knowledge it is impossible to find contemporaneous newspaper reports.
The effort to erase the incident was pretty successful too: the story of the massacre was unknown beyond the minds of survivors and their families until the 1970s!
Oh yes, the only persons ever brought to court for the race riot were some of the Blacks who had just had their homes and businesses burned to the ground by their white neighbours.
This guy is AMAZING and I haven't heard him at all on American TV - that in itself speaks volumes.
Please correct me if I'm wrong
Great job! Shoutout to Shaun 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽 And to the Gazans: This too shall pass‼️Inshallah 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
Thank you for your independent interview❤
Great interview.
We lived in the West Bank for a few years and we saw the apartheid mentality. We saw more than most people have gotten to experience and really have not had a voice until this war/genocide. People are coming to us with questions trying to understand. God works all things for good! With all of the horrible pain, suffering and atrocities, I believe God will work good through it all and in it the world is beginning to know the truth! That is a beginning. I too have felt helpless. Weeping and praying all through the days with Palestinians.
So glad to catch Shaun King on this.
Thank you Mr. King
great interview. Thank you Shaun for all you are doing for Palestine! We appreciate you
Absolutely!
This man is so informative and has such an eloquent way of speaking. Thank you for the hope and God willing we can all stand up and free the Palestinians! ❤🇵🇸🫶🙏🤲
One day American suffering from the virus. But I like very very much this country. God bless this country

Palestine is from the river to the sea.
Anti zionisim isnt anti semitism.

So proud of shaun king
Through some of the beautiful documentaries presented via Aljazeera. I'm touched by the strong essence of the Palestinian people. The fisherman/ woman of GAZA who is the breadwinner of her family along with her siblings. I'm praying for her and all of the innocent victims who are really hostages themselves because of the military Zionist Colonial Occupation in their own land as well as the people in the West Bank
May a cease fire and true peace come unto these people.
On Oct 7th Hamas invited the Israelis the reason to go into Gaza.
Excellent discussion
SURE
The strange thing is that all these atrocities, these unacceptable colonial acts of violence, took place before, in silence. Even if you followed Palestinian news, it wasn't clear what was going on, the deprivation of electricity, gas and so on. Israel had already practised this blackmail before, surrounded by its usual practice of massacres, in the form of collective sadistic torture. But never before had it been so clearly and so savagely carried out by a regime with archaic practices and cave mentality from another age...
Thanks for this. I am following my heart and good common sense. I KNOW that what's being fed to us about this conflict isn't right. I am Pro-Palestine!
American media interviewing people from Texas and Colorado that were living in Israel but left.
They was there spreading their racism. 😊
They ran home to the USA 🇺🇸
Great conversation. Shoukranox🇵🇸✊️🧡
I hope the democrats nominate someone besides Biden because l can't vote for him either.
He represents American oligarchy and globalists.

Thank you Shaun 🥰👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Recently in a talk show in German government-founded TV (ARD) someone of the guests argued against the usage of the term 'apartheid' stating that this term should not be used because eventually it means that the existence of Israel is coming to an end by means of violent assaults.
Being German myself, I don't know how to comment this.
Best piece for sure !
thank you so much
This host is great

Thanks
agreed 100%
Shaun King is spot on 🎯
What the past 6 weeks has shown me and I think a lot of individuals who are normally just engrossed in their day to day living, it has woken me up to:
1. Be aware of your surroundings and your world. Don't live in a bubble of ignorance. You are a part of a whole. Whatever affects each part affects you too, sooner or later, that is the ripple effect of nature.
2. Trust only yourself then you are accountable to yourself. Seek information and resources your own way and don't just passively be spoon-fed. Check, double check, triple check, cross check.
3. I do not trust any government nor media outright anymore.
4. Tune in to the essence in you that is pure - is it in lined with love, compassion, acceptance and respect. If not question it.
5. Question Everything!
6. Stand up and voice out for what you know is right.
I just don't remember any Palestinian speaking out against injustices done to black folks 😮
Really? Because they had signs there. Again, you may want to understand that you probably know not a single Palestinians.
Zio’s never supported blacks because they are white supremacists.
Western Media will never tell our stories the way they should be told !
We need to unite and own our voices !
Gaza was a part of Egypt between 1948-1967. And no Egyptian ever thought to create a "Palestinian state" there. Why? Because they know it is absurd. And Israel asks Egypt to take Gaza back for the last 45 years - Egypt doesn't want this garbage.
Thank you Shun King ❤
Too real
He’s has a good spirit
No to terrorism no to genocide peace for all
I have understood it for serval years. Free Palestine
I can’t believe this interview doesn’t have more views yet they are definitely trying to suppress the viewing. This is such a good interview. Shaun is such an amazing, intelligent and genuine person. everything he says is so spot on. I don’t have Palestinian friends but I did my own research and can see what’s happening and it is inhumane. I consider myself a Christian and the Bible says to love thy neighbour and not kill. I have been told the Quran says the same as well. What is happening is like he said layers upon layers of horrible things. Apartheid, dehumanisation, colonialism, ethnic cleansing , genocide. It is an absolute massacre 😢this needs to stop and we need to continue to speak up despite I trying to silence everyone
No excuse for terror
I hadn’t met any black South Africans when I did benefit gigs and marched against apartheid in the 80s. Since then I’ve done benefit gigs and marched against the apartheid faced by Palestinians - but I have never knowingly met a Palestinian. Where am I going wrong?
You stand in solidarity and from my understanding that’s just as important to the Palestinians than you having to meet or know one! Thank you for your support, aim not Palestinian and my family are in part jewish but we are for Palestine as the Zionist state is an apartheid state !
Drawing a contrast between reactions to Ukraine, and this conflict is eye opening 😢
I am wondering if I am also desensitized. For me, Hamas (and their tactics) is the difference. We have family in the military that have first hand accounts of their brutality. Ergo my own personal bias……..
ALL THAT SAID, the loss of one child does not expunge the loss of another. God help us all🙏
Exactly 💯
Just to educate you, the Zionist terrorist ousted 700,000 Palestinians in the first Nakba in 1948, where there was no PLO nor Hamas! Moreover look up the Zionist Dalet plan of 1948, in which they clearly stated their aim which is to ethnically cleanse all non Jews from. A broader area beyond Palestine! So in accordance with international Law Israel as a settler coloniser and controller of the territory have no right to defend itself if attacks upon it emanates from the terrorories which they occupy! And when our western governments and msm start off every sentence saying ‘Israel has a right to defend itself’ is just not true, and by saying this for 70 years have desensitised people to the actual international law on war/ conflict, also Hamras was created by israel to oppose the PLO, and even as late as 2019 Netanyahu stated he needs Hamas to be funded so he can use them to ensure Israel will never have to have a two state solution., it’s important that you know the difference between freedom fighters and brutal settler colonisers!
free PALESTINE all of the world help them bcz idf there’s many types of terrorism
