Freddy G is a Jewish comedian born and raised in Brooklyn, known for his trademark orange beard and his videos skewering Zionist propaganda.Some of my favorite videos of Freddy’s are his sketches with Palestinian-American comedian Sharif Hasan. The pair use slapstick humor to depict themes as serious as settlement expansion, as Freddy moves into Sharif’s apartment, quickly taking more and more square footage, and preventing him from protesting.Recently, Freddy and Sharif used their act to bring light to US weapons getting shipped to Israel out of JFK and Newark airports.If you would like to learn more about arms shipping out of New York area ports, and how to stop them, check out Break The Chain. Labor stoppages have prevented arms shipments from other countries, and we can do them here too! If you can’t attend a Break The Chain meeting, please consider talking about an arms embargo with some friends. You never know who may be able to help.Freddy’s videos are a bright light to people frustrated that American media doesn’t want to talk about the genocide, because talking about it of course is necessary to stop it. I have loved getting to know Freddy more, traveling to Cuba together, and I look forward to whatever he makes next.Break The Chain: https://wecanbreakthechain.com/Follow Freddy:instagram.com/orangefreddygwww.tiktok.com/@orangefreddygFollow Mary:instagram.com/maryhoulietiktok.com/@maryhoulie www.patreon.com/maryhoulihanCome see Mary Houlihan on the road this fall:10/10 Milwaukee Comedy Festivalhttps://www.tickettailor.com/events/milwaukeecomedy/235115810/24 Gainesville – Festhttps://thefestfl.com/11/19 Madison WIhttps://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/seatonstreetcomedy/traincar-comedy-headlining-series-mary-houlihan11/21 Sacramento Punchlinehttps://www.ticketmaster.com/event/1C00651833DEA06111/22 San Francisco – Cobb'shttps://www.ticketmaster.com/event/1C006519EE4CF0FESee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matthew Solomon talks his new documentary film, "Seeds for Liberation." "Seeds for Liberation" features Palestinian-American comedian Sammy Obeid, Palestinian-American legal scholar Noura Erakat, Black pastor and Stop Copy City activist Reverend Keyanna Jones Moore, student Yusef Khafaja who sustained bloody head injuries after being beaten by thugs disrupting the UCLA encampments, Jewish and Christian Zionists radicalized upon seeing the West Bank with their own eyes, and many more activists of diverse racial and religious backgrounds from disparate parts of the country.As you have probably noticed watching my channel, I try to show that there are already so many people "doing the work," and that the work is actually kinda fun, and it's easy to join in. I don't think most American media always wants you to know that. Please support Matthew Solomon's work by attending or hosting a screening of "Seeds for Liberation."

Annette Mullaney first came to my attention when I saw her hilarious videos taking selfies with ICE agents and getting their on-camera reactions to her saying, well, things ICE agents might get in trouble for.We since worked together on a Climate Defiance video disrupting a Rahm Emanuel event, and I've loved seeing more of her comedy and her videos from Delaney Hall.I feel that Annette, like a lot of the guests I feature, is a kindred spirit trying to use her gift of comedy to disrupt the status quo and make protesting look fun and enticing, not something to be scared of.I loved learning more of her backstory, how she learned Arabic hoping to change American foreign policy, found out that would be near impossible to do from the inside, and has never given up her dream of trying to educate people about how we can fix things –– she just does it through humor now.Follow Mary:@maryhoulieyoutube.com/maryhoulihanFollow Annette:@ho_grammerSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Riya Khan was living every immigrant parent's dream: getting a law degree in Florida.When she found out her mother was kidnapped by ICE at a routine immigration appointment, she rushed home to California to help. While visiting her mom at CoreCivic-owned California City Detention Center, she could tell something wasn’t right.Her 64-year-old mother was quickly deteriorating, being denied her daily medications for high blood pressure, hypothyroidism, and pre-diabetes. Her blood pressure was dangerously high, putting her at immediate risk of stroke.Riya and her father were able to advocate for her mother's release, but what happens to families who don't have law degrees? Or money for good lawyers? Or don't even speak English?Since then, California State Senator Sasha Renée Pérez authored SB995, the Masuma Khan Justice Act, which would allow regular inspections of for-profit detention centers by local health and safety authorities, and fine these private corporate institutions $25,000 per violation, per day, paid to U.S. taxpayers. The bill passed unanimously with bipartisan support, but was mysteriously struck down by the California State Senate Appropriations Committee headed by Democrat Buffy Wicks.Senator Pérez has kept the fight alive, including the language from the Masuma Khan Justice Act in an amendment to SB957. Advocates are asking that California residents please reach out to Buffy Wicks, Gavin Newsom, and Robert Rivas to demand a vote on SB957.Buffy Wicks: (916) 319-2014Robert Rivas: (916) 319-2029Gavin Newsom: (916) 445-2841In my coverage of private for-profit detention centers, I have repeatedly been trying to get the word out that these centers are committing corruption in plain sight, stealing tax dollars from all Americans regardless of political affiliation or feelings on immigration. It's a problem when the president is Republican. It's a problem when the president is Democrat. It is a completely nonpartisan issue, that everyone who isn't a rich detention center executive should be united in fighting. What California State Assembly Appropriations Committee did to the Masuma Khan Justice Act should be a wake-up call that the corruption runs deep, and that politicians on both sides of the aisle are accepting favors in exchange for enriching CoreCivic and GEO Group's owners with regular working people's tax dollars – and they aren't even getting immigration control out of the deal.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
