In this episode, Josh speaks with Mike Ferner of Veterans For Peace about the 40-day Fast for Gaza - a somber yet defiant campaign to confront the starvation and bombing of Palestinians carried out with U.S. support. They discuss the heartbreak and outrage fueling the fast, the growing crackdown on dissent at home, and the hope sparked by Fresno-area activists joining the call for justice. Listeners are urged to bear witness and to take action.
