Platform: Marc Lamont Hill has over 400k followers on Twitter, and over a million total across all social platforms, hosts a popular weekly BET show that covers hot topics and cultural conversations, is booked regularly for public speaking engagement on politics, race, justice, education and more, is well-connected in activist and social justice circles on the ground and in public life, domestically and globally. Strong Track: Over 25, 000 copies sold of Nobody, a New York Times bestselling title that published into a crowded Black Lives Matter market. Far-reaching Media Connections: Hill has relationships with TV, radio, and print outlets that provide regular platforms for his political commentary including MSNBC, Al Jazeera, The Intercept, and others. Controversial Topic: U.S. policy on matters of Israel and Palestine remains a hot-button topic, and the title of the book will resonate with the growing number of protest and armchair activists who follow this issue. 2020 Elections: This will be a go-to book for anyone looking to contextualize how the presidential candidates position their platforms on Israel and Palestine. Famous Firing and Widespread Public Support: Hill's termination from CNN made headlines and caused an instant groundswell of support in his defense (Temple University students organized a protest of 1, 000+ overnight), his name and 'Palestine' on the cover will draw both media and reader attention. The book will benefit greatly from the support of U.S. based organizations including Jewish Voices for Peace, Foundation for Middle East Peace, U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, Institute for Middle East Understanding, Black Lives Matter, Black for Palestine, and Existence is Resistance (many expressed interest in pre-ordering bulk copies of the book as a gesture of support, and for organizing and fundraising purposes.) Organizations in Israel/Palestine including Adalah, Ad Dameer, Al Qaws, Aswat, and B'Tselem have made similar offers.
