As a Palestinian-American journalist who has lived under the oppressive shadow of Israeli occupation and witnessed firsthand the relentless brutality of the apartheid regime, I cannot remain silent as my people face relentless oppression and violence. I recently became the recipient of the Women and Media Award from the Women's Institute of the Freedom of the Press. And while it's truly an honor to receive this recognition for the journalism that I direct at MintPress News, it's nearly impossible for me to revel in this accolade when my heart is weighed down heavily by the ongoing turmoil in Gaza. I want to dedicate this award to the fearless journalists in Gaza who are risking their lives to show us the raw reality of life under Israeli bombs.
