Ta-Nehisi Coates in conversation with Mehdi Hasan on Israel’s apartheid and the American media response to Coates extraordinary new book 'The Message'

Ta-Nehisi Coates on Israel’s apartheid: 

“We need more Palestinians telling the story”

“When you see segregation. I don't need more time to understand what it is.” Award-winning author and journalist Ta-Nehisi Coates joins ‘Mehdi Unfiltered’ to discuss his latest book’s focus on Palestine, and the reception it has received from the mainstream media – including a shocking interview on CBS. In this exclusive interview, Coates discusses topics for the first time since the start of his book tour – including his view of President Biden’s Zionism, and his advice to Vice President Kamala Harris on arms sales to Israel. His new book, The Message, explores how mainstream narratives shape and sometimes distort our experience. To write the book, Coates traveled to Senegal, South Carolina, and the occupied West Bank.
