To what extent does the history of Israel-Palestine inform the response to human suffering in present day Gaza?
This discussion took place in Bristol on Saturday the 4th of November 2023 as several thousand people walked and cycled from Castle Park to College Green in Bristol, south-west England.
Jonathan Kempster spoke to Linzy Na Nakorn, a human rights and cycling campaigner (co-director of The Big Ride for Palestine, http://www.thebigride4palestine.com/), and with Kathe Jacob, a local resident and activist who is of Jewish heritage.
