Ep. 27 The Anne Frank Who Lived: A Holocaust Survivor Shares Her Incredible Story
When she was just six months old, Louise Lawrence-Israels' parents hid her and her brother in an abandoned attic in Amsterdam. It was the winter of 1943, and the situation for Jews in the Netherlands was deteriorating. Public executions and mass deportations to Concentration Camps in Poland made Louise's parents fear for her and her brother's safety. They remained in that attic for nearly three years. Sometimes the only food she had was warm water. She and her brother never stepped foot outside during that time. She shared her story with RocaNews' official podcast We The 66. Before we share timestamps, we'd like to give a special thanks to Louise and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC which allowed us to film this interview in its hallowed halls.

Ep. 26 Michigan Imam on Kamala Harris, Wokeness, and Israel (FIERY Debate)
Hassan al-Qazwini is one of the most prominent Muslim leaders in America. The Dearborn, Michigan-based Imam has been an American citizen since 1998 and considers the United States to be the best country in the world to be a Muslim. However, he argues that Israel exerts an undue influence -- to put it mildly -- on our politics and has made him and the American Muslim community irate. We ask him about what it's like to live in America's Arab-majority city, how he will vote this November, what he thinks of his Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, the difference between Sunni and Shia Muslims, AIPAC's influence on American politicians, and more. Timestamps: 0:00 - Trailer 1:12 - Inside the Mosque 2:35 - IMAM INTRO 3:57 - Sunni vs. Shia Differences 10:30 - What is Dearborn community like? 13:40 - Iran's influence 18:08 - Imam goes off on Israeli War 24:25 - Who the Imam will vote for 26:47 - "Jihad capital of the US" WSJ piece 28:12 - Why we support Israel 30:30 - AIPAC's influence 32:35 - HEATED debate on Israel 42:10 - Rashida Tlaib being pro-LGBTQ 45:45 - Imam on the Republicans 49:40 - Why Muslims hate America 55:15 - Palestine's future 57:30 - Can they live together? 1:00:00 - Future of Dearborn, MI We look forward to hearing your thoughts on this interview. It was fiery at times, and you may vehemently disagree with some of what the Imam said about Israel, America, and other subjects. But it's important to hear his perspective, and We the 66 believes that more conversation is the answer, not less. Comment thoughts below or email us at wethe66@rocanews.com.
