Rapper Yasiin Bey (formerly Mos Def) has been a longtime supporter of the Palestinian cause. In his words, Israel’s four-month assault on the Gaza Strip, which has killed over 30,000 people, mainly women and children, is an unnecessary evil.
In this video, Yasiin takes issue with leaders around the world, including those in the US, who are complacent in the killing of children in Gaza.
“If you can’t rely on the way… the light of your own conscience to know right or wrong, then Godspeed to you and get out of my face.”
