toastykittenFYI apparently HR 867 has been pulled from the schedule, after vocal opposition from Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie, both Republicans. I am so repulsed that this obviously unconstitutional bill had to be objected to vocally by Republicans on free speech grounds for it to be taken seriously, and so annoyed that Democrats can't even just take the easy layup of saying Americans should be able to boycott whoever the fuck they want.
Anyway, here are some documentaries on Israel and Palestine that are freely available - I have not watched them all yet, as honestly, I have to really pace myself because of the content.
Israelism - this is presented by Al-Jazeera, follows Simone Zimmerman, who goes on to found IfNotNow, and Eitan's journey of self-awareness of basically the cult they've grown up in, and how they come to change their views.
This Settlers is not the most recent one that was released and is currently getting publicity - this is the first one, first released in 2021.
Palestine 1920: The Other Side of the Palestinian Story - Al-Jazeera has several documentaries on the history of Palestine through the Palestinian lens, and I think they are pretty educational.
Al-Nakba: The Palestinian Catastrophe is a 4 part series on the history of the Palestinian exodus that led to the first Arab-Israeli war in 1948 and the establishment of the Palestinian state.
