×George Harris, the husband of Eliza, is a favorite character in the book, probably because he asserts his human rights even as a slave who is owned by some white man.
So it is quite easy to see why the United States is once again enabling ethnic cleansing and genocide of the Palestinian people. For it is the United States that funds, arms and protects the most violent and racist of its foreign colonies, that of apartheid Israel.
