A Public Affair

“Slow Motion Genocide” with Jennifer Loewenstein


Listen Later


As the death toll in Gaza reaches 30 thousand, host Allen Ruff talks with activist Jennifer Loewenstein about the continued destruction in Palestine.
“When you deliberately deny people humanitarian aid, as well as water, fuel, electricity, and medical supplies, you have engineered a slow motion genocide,” says Loewenstein.
Loewenstein and Ruff also discuss the unfolding humanitarian crisis in Rafah, the role of the U.S. in fueling Israel’s attacks on Gaza, and how charges of anti-Semitism are leveled at Jewish anti-war activists.
We also have friend of the show Matt Rothchild on air to help with fundraising efforts.

Jennifer Loewenstein is an American activist, journalist, and founder of the Madison-Rafah Sister City Project. Her work has appeared in academic journals such as The Journal of Palestine Studies, and she is a regular contributor to the CounterPunch magazine.
