Will this be a “Blacks for Trump” type situation, or will there be actual Palestinians present?

we remain hopeful that they and the Harris campaign will honor our request for Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan and a Palestinian-American to be granted speaking time from the convention stage

Dr. Haj-Hassan was a doctor working at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, Gaza during the war

Monday’s panel will also feature… Hala Hijazi, a Democratic organizer who has had several family members killed in Gaza by Israel’s military; Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison; and former U.S. Rep. Andy Levin (D-Mich.), a Jewish progressive who was unseated in the 2022 midterms by an AIPAC-backed candidate.

They still haven’t said if that doctor can talk or not?
