    Prison Struggle in Palestine w/ Milena Ansari

    This week, Grace speaks to Milena Ansari, international advocacy officer at Addameer, the Palestinian prisoner support and human rights organization. They discuss the horrendous practice of administrative detention undertaken against Palestinians by the Israeli state. Palestinians who are suspected of posing a potential threat are detained through a military court without being given any information about the evidence that is held against them, contravening all sorts of human rights including the right to a fair trial.
