Show Notes

Rula Jebreal, Palestinian activist, called Rep. Hakeem Jeffries an "AIPAC Monkey" on a podcast. Rula is a woman of color who apologized profusely, but when you say "monkey," everything else you say afterward can't be heard. Author and journalist, Michael Harriot, tells us what to do when allies trip up.

Before we get to Michael: BET Digital has deleted their archive of articles--years worth of reporting gone forever. Philip Lewis joins us to explain what happened.
