First tier are Israeli Jews.

Why do we support that?

Why is that okay?

I'm the child of Jim Crow.

I'm the child of people that were born into a country where that was exactly the case of American apartheid.

I walk over there and I walk through the occupied territories and I walk down a street in Hebron and a guy says to me, I can't walk down the street unless I profess my religion.

I'm with another.

No, no, no, no, no.

I want to.

This is very, very important.

It is extremely important.

Let me lay it down.

I'm working with the person that is guiding me is a Palestinian whose father, whose grandfather and grandmother was born in this town.

And I have more freedom to walk than he does.

He can't ride on certain roads.

He can't get water in the same way that Israeli citizens who live less than a mile away from him can.

Why?

Why is that?

Why is there no agency in this book for the Palestinians?

They exist in your narrative merely as victims of the Israelis, as though they were not offered peace at any juncture, as though they don't have a stake in this as well.
