Massive protests demanding a ceasefire in Gaza and an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestine took place across the globe again over the weekend. Drone footage shows an endless sea of protesters in major cities including Jakarta, Paris, London and Berlin. Here in the U.S., over 100,000 people took the streets of Washington, D.C., Saturday in the largest-ever U.S. demonstration for Palestinian rights. Speakers addressed the crowd from a stage in Freedom Plaza before marching toward the White House. This is Hatem Bazian, a Palestinian professor at UC Berkeley.

Hatem Bazian: “Palestine was the last settler colonial project to be commissioned by these Western hypocritical countries. And as we celebrated the release of Nelson Mandela and the end of apartheid, the last settler colony in Africa, we will celebrate the end of settler colonialism in Palestine. Why? Because that’s what justice call. That’s what courage calls for. That’s what integrity calls for.”

Later in the broadcast, we’ll hear more voices from the historic protest in D.C.
