COMMENTARY: By Caitlin Johnstone
I publish my work in print form every month in a collection called JOHNSTONE magazine. The new edition is now available to order in print or download as a pay-what-you-want e-book version.
The holocaust in Gaza has been reignited after a brief intermission. The bodies are piling up again. Food is running out. Netanyahu and Trump are working to end the existence of Palestinians in their historic homeland.
The suffering is unfathomable. And it’s all being supported by the Western empire under which we live.
It’s up to each of us how we’re going to respond to this nightmare.
This month’s issue of JOHNSTONE features UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, because she is an exemplary embodiment of what it looks like to live a life that answers this urgent call.
