Weeks after Israeli forces shot and killed over a hundred and injured thousands at the Great Return march at the Gaza border, a boat attempted to leave seeking medical attention for some. On our show today we’ll turn to activist Ann Wright for a look at how Israel intercepted the Gaza boat and how 8 years ago, a boat called the Mavi Marmara was attacked by Israeli forces and 9 people killed. Then we’ll turn to Thanu Yakupitiyage of 350.org one year after Donald Trump pulled the US out of the Paris Accord. We’ll find out what happened over the past year and what’s next in the fight against climate change. Finally, Dr. Peter Carter joins us from Canada to discuss the book he has just co-authored with Elizabeth Woodworth called Unprecedented Crime: Climate Science Denial and Game Changers for Survival. Carter will make the legal case for why climate denialism and the on-going fueling of the climate crisis is a crime against humanity.
