BLM: Blacks Must Support Palestine

Black Lives Matter has long stood with the Palestinian cause. And it continues to do so in the face of the Israel-Hamas war.

In this clip, BLM founder Patrisse Cullors explains why Blacks should support their struggle. She was speaking in 2015 after returning from a trip to Palestine where she witnessed the daily oppression its people. Their plight, she says, has clear parallels with apartheid South Africa.

Cullors resigned from BLM after six years in charge following criticism over her lavish lifestyle. But even if you feel she left under a cloud, it's worth listening to what she says in this interview.
