The devastation in Gaza and the humanitarian crisis that has befallen its people have galvanized the world, especially young people in America and elsewhere, as hundreds of thousands of Palestinians flee homes that have been reduced to rubble. The Reverend Frederick Haynes, and Black pastors across the U.S., are lobbying for a ceasefire through open letters and meetings with White House officials. Rev. Haynes speaks to Michel Martin about the impact this could have on Palestinians and on U.S. politics.
