Sami Abu Shehadeh: “Israeli identity is built on racism” | The InnerView
Sami Abu Shehadeh is an Arab Israeli politician who says he is a second-class citizen in his own country because Israeli identity is built on a policy of Jewish superiority. Imran Garda meets Sami in his hometown of Jaffa, where more than a third of residents are, like Sami, Palestinians who hold Israeli citizenship. The conversation explores how October 7th and the war in Gaza have impacted the delicate balance that exists between Jaffa’s Jewish and Palestinian communities. An unexpected interruption shows Imran first-hand the danger of publicly expressing dissent against Israel and the war in Gaza.
