    Thanks so much for this. I am a big fan of Amanda, what a humanist to her core and also loves the animal kingdom which gets overlooked so much in the era of 'I'm a Dog person'. Loving dogs doesn't make you an empath by default. The world needs some humour IQ and it is so underrated and should be studied more. Aww Sammy mentioned Just For Laughs which doesn't exist anymore. We are still flabbergasted as to why such an integral festival folded. it happened after October 7th btw..just saying.

    Also fyi, the broad stripe on the keffiyeh represents the vibrant trade routes that Palestine had historically.

    Awesome, glad I found you guys!
    To me it's an interesting concept - "we need more leaders" - maybe it's a cultural thing? Leaders as a concept feels very US, even if we broaden it's meaning to include everyone. I get what you're saying though and I think we're on about the same thing but from different aspects, when I talk about solidarity. We need more solidarity and that also means that anyone can, and thus should, step up when needed, after ability...I think that's what you US people are saying right, we need more leaders?
    Amanda: *About committing to your own course* "Do you feel liberated by that?"
    Sammy: "100%"
    Amanda: "Tell me more."
    Sammy: "1000%"
    That cracked me up! I don't think that maths joke was intentional, but if it was - smoothest ever. If it wasn't, subconscious math jokes feels very next level!
    And, btw, Darth Vader flipped sides. Kinda big deal, duh..? Actually, twice if you think about it. Han Solo sort of flips sides as well, from not taking sides - just trying to keep a low profile in the world as it is - to doing so, to the only side possible to agree with. I'd say that switch is very symbolic for what's needed to rebel status quo, power status such. (And STAR WARS should be seen as a reflection of the whole liberation era, not only the Vietnam part even if that's important.)

    My best friend is from Gaza. He gave me a kaffiyeh that he got while he still lived there. It's one of my most treasured possessions. I live in the Olympia, Washington area, which is pretty pro-pali and has been since 2003 at least (when Rachel Corrie was killed). I went south awhile back to get food from this drive in place I love and I stopped to get gas and didn't even think about how people might react. I got in a huge argument with this guy in a gas station parking lot. Washington State, the only place where a 20 minute drive can transport you back in time. Lewis county people are nuts for real.

    Loved the episode. I am a big Amanda fan, however felt like she was attacking everything Sammy said and thats why he was quiet for so much of this episode. I would have loved to hear more from him, especially since he is a Palestinian and also very smart. He has 2 degrees! She kept saying how smart she is but then made a mistake when Josh asked her a question and called him Sammy. Also there were times Josh asked both of them questions and Amanda didnt even let Sammy answer eg: about the Keffiyyah. As a Palestinian, I am sure he would have given us a proper answer.

    Semitic people or Semites is an obsolete term for an ethnic, cultural or racial group associated with people of the Middle East, including Arabs, Jews, Akkadians, and Phoenicians. The terminology is now largely unused outside the grouping "Semitic languages" in linguistics. First used in the 1770s by members of the Göttingen school of history, this biblical terminology for race was derived from Shem (Hebrew: שֵׁם), one of the three sons of Noah in the Book of Genesis, together with the parallel terms Hamites and Japhetites.
    In archaeology, the term is sometimes used informally as "a kind of shorthand" for ancient Semitic-speaking peoples. Source Wikipedia
