March 21, 2024: Live from Cape Town, South Africa
I attended my first protest since October 7th. It was a surreal experience - for almost five months, I reported on the ground in Gaza. I joined the march for Gaza in Simon’s Town to the reflective atmosphere at Groote Kerk in the city centre.
To show solidarity, I asked you to do whatever you could to humanize the suffering of our people. I asked you to protest, raise awareness and advocate for a free Palestine. You set the stage and have contributed to a significant change in the narrative for the Palestinian people. The narrative is changing, and people all over the world are joining the movement for Gaza and Palestine, to end the genocide.
I received a warm welcome in Cape Town, where I was deeply moved by the passion and hospitality of the people, Mashallah. Everywhere I went, I encountered individuals who were eager to hear about Gaza and expressed genuine concern for Palestinians, actively working to end the ongoing genocide and apartheid in Gaza and the West Bank.
