The event surrounding the eviction of palestinian Arabs from homes in Sheikh Jarrah is not just making the international news and consuming the social media feeds of high profile politicians and celebrities (unanimously in support of the evicted palestinian Arabs)

It is inhumane and the US must show leadership in safeguarding the human rights of Palestinians.
