Gaza writer Jihad AbuSalim talks to Mark Lamont Hill about Trump’s peace.
Gaza writer Jihad AbuSalim talks to Mark Lamont Hill on Trump’s peace board about whether Gaza Palestinians will get a role in shaping their future.
More than a hundred days after the ceasefire in Gaza, Israeli attacks continue, killing hundreds of Palestinians.
At the same time, United States President Donald Trump’s “peace board” pursuing Gaza reconstruction plans – with no Palestinians in its top leadership – is raising questions about whether meaningful change is possible without the voices of those most affected.
So what comes next? Will Gaza Palestinians have any real role in shaping their future?
On this week’s Advance, Mark Lamont Hill spoke to Jihad Abusalim, policy analyst and author of Light in Gaza: Writings Born of Fire, about the ceasefire, ongoing Israeli attacks, Trump’s plans for Gaza, and the prospects ahead for the region.
