Hunger.
Cold. Thirst. Disease. These are the daily realities of life in Gaza, where for
the past 423 days, Israel has unleashed a genocide that will come to define our
contemporary era. As Palestinians struggle to meet their daily needs, they are
also faced with a battle to preserve their memories and dignity. Over the past
year, journalist and filmmaker Ruwaida Amer has produced numerous powerful,
heart-wrenching documentary reports for TRNN from the rubble and ruins of Gaza,
shining a light on the darkest realities of Israel’s genocidal war on
Palestinians, even as she herself suffers from—and struggles to survive—the
onslaught. Calling in from Gaza, Amer joins The Marc Steiner Show to share an
honest portrait of her life and the lives of her fellow Palestinians in the
midst of genocide.
