Jake: What did you learn in school, Isa?
Isa: Not enough to graduate. I have to go back tomorrow.
Job interviewer: And where would you see yourself in five years' time, Isa?

This is the same thing over and over again. Palestinians die every day, but it gets a lukewarm headline from mainstream media because death and destruction is inherent to Arabness. Then an aid convoy with white workers is obliterated, and now both the president of the United States and the president of Israel are making statements apologizing for “the poor protection of aid workers.” At one point we were seeing multiple reports a day of paramedics from the Palestine Red Crescent Society dying, but nothing. Crickets. Because they don’t care. And even in these “remorseful statements” there is a strategic reminder that white lives hold more weight than brown lives.
Isa: Here, I bought you a calendar. Your days are numbered now.
Jake: That’s a nice way to threaten someone.
