From East Palestine to Palestine, People Need Help
Manage episode 413447592 series 116646
In the first half of the show, Eleanor sits down with two residents of East Palestine, Ohio — Zsuzsa Gyenes and Chris Albright — to discuss the ongoing fallout from the catastrophic train derailment in February of last year. Zsuzsa and Chris talk about a purgatory of waiting without help, without answers, without accountability, all the while displaced and dealing with a range of illnesses, while local, state, and federal authorities bow to corporate greed over public health and justice.
Next up, retired army colonel Ann Wright joins the show to talk about the Freedom Flotilla: multiple vessels set to sail in mid-April carrying tons of humanitarian aid bound for Gaza. Ann talks about the history of these actions, the need for citizens to take action — even dangerous actions such as this — in order to do what their governments refuse to do: help the Palestinian people.
