Game of Thrones actor Liam Cunningham joins the show to discuss Israel’s genocide in Gaza, the critical role of public figures in condemning it, and how the Western media enables the violence. A longtime advocate for Palestine, Cunningham reflects on the roots of his activism in an industry where speaking out often invites backlash and blacklisting. “I need to be able to look myself in the mirror,” he says. He also calls out celebrities who stay silent on Gaza: “I’m astonished at the cowardice of people who won’t come forward. If you have a platform, you’re obligated to use it– especially where you see injustice.”
