This was honestly very eye opening. It's absolutely sickening how the occupied settlers treat Palestinians and the faulty systems Ahed Tamimi had ro go through as a child. It's amazing to learn about her journey with activism and protesting for her people and her home Palestine.

Extremely inspiring and a galvanizing story. I am constantly impressed by the accomplishments and willpower of young women. I kind of wish there was a bit more historical context but that’s nitpicking. The story spoke for itself and was extremely inspiring.
