    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of The Reign Report, host Nes talks to Freckles, an American Palestinian, in part one of a two-part series. Freckles recounts the story of being kidnapped by her mother as a baby and given a new identity, leaving her disconnected from her Palestinian father, whom she is still searching for today. She reflects on a pivotal moment when her father reached out, but she was torn between her mother's influence and her desire to know him. Freckles also shares her time living on Israeli military bases, where she faced discrimination for her identity. A transformative moment came when she met a Palestinian man, sparking the gradual deprogramming of the misinformation she'd grown up with.
