Israeli police arrested two Palestinian bookstore owners in occupied East Jerusalem over the weekend. This followed a raid on two branches of the Educational Bookshop owned by Mahmoud and Ahmad Muna. Their supporters - Arabs and Jews - rallied in front of a Jerusalem court today. Host Marco Werman speaks with author and journalist Nathan Thrall, who won the Pulitzer Prize for his book "A Day In The Life of Abed Salama," about his support for the bookstore owners and what this says about free speech for Palestinians living under Israel's authority.
