In our post-Oct 7th World, It's Not Cancel Culture; the Genocide in Gaza Has Created an Entirely New Category of Censorship and Pressure.
This week in Arabs in Media, we look at the idea of freedom of speech at the intersection of commercial media and tech, and why, even if it doesn't affect you personally, why it should matter to everyone.
We'll discuss Mehdi Hasan, who left MSNBC after criticisms of Israel, and just a few days ago, Briahna Joy Gray's firing from The Hill's 'Rising' program.
Meta (Facebook, Instagram) recently fired Ferras Hamad, an engineer, who was assigned to look bugs or systemic issues that suppressed Palestinian creator content. We'll discuss details of the lawsuit and Meta's problematic history with genocides.
We also update you on the forensics report on the killing of 6-year-old Hind Rajab, which was just released.

They have a really cool spreadsheet for you to easily see where and how you can help individual families easily, along with multiple links for social accounts, and ways you can grass-roots start you own form of help and support:
