TIL about Vanessa Redgrave [0]. She came before us watermeloners and stood up alone for Palestinians before it was as popular as today for Hollywood. She lost her career over it. She called out Zionism in her Oscar acceptance speech in 1977 (!!!). She made a documentary The Palestinian [1], the first of its kind to come to the attention of Western media [1].
