Meet Janna Jihad, the 13-Year-Old Palestinian Journalist Exposing the Israeli Occupation

"My camera is my gun." Those are the words of a celebrated Palestinian journalist who has been reporting on the Israeli occupation from the West Bank for more than six years. But Janna Jihad isn't any journalist — she's just 13 years old. She started telling stories about her home of Nabi Saleh when she was only seven, after her cousin and uncle were killed in her village. She recently joined us in our New York studio. #DemocracyNow Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on nearly 1,400 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
