On the day of thousands of “No Kings” rallies being held across the country, Ali Velshi taps into the history of civil disobedience in South Africa, where thousands of civilians were willingly arrested protesting apartheid. “When they try to silence you with repression, reply with more people, louder voices, undeterred steps,” Velshi said. “This is how single, small acts of courage become many.” - Aired on 10/18/2025.
