Busboys and Poets is a restaurant, bar, bookstore and community gathering place. First established in 2005, Busboys and Poets was founded by owner Andy Shallal (@andyshallal), an artist, activist, and restaurateur. After opening the flagship location at 14th and V Streets, NW DC, the neighboring residents, and the progressive community embraced Busboys and Poets, particularly activists opposed to the Iraq War.
Busboys and Poets is now located in eight distinctive neighborhoods in the Washington D.C Metropolitan and Baltimore areas. Busboys and Poets is a cultural hub for artists, activists, writers, thinkers, and dreamers.
Why the name?
The name Busboys and Poets refers to American poet Langston Hughes, who worked as a busboy at the Wardman Park Hotel in the 1920s, prior to gaining recognition as a poet.
FEEDING MIND, BODY, & SOUL. THAT IS THE BUSBOYS WAY.

Thank you busboys ‘n poets for bringing a Norman, a dedicated humanist to denounce the atrocities committed against Palestine since the beginning to the cost of his own reputation
Where is the asexual perspective?
With the asexuals.
The population in Gaza, the world‘s biggest free for all terror resort, has risen from 500k to over 2 million between 2008 and 2023. A very strange „genocide“.
I'm a fan of Norman. Not so sure about Busboys. I didn't like the "tap them on the shoulder and tell them to stop talking " bit. There is a whole negative cultural movement right there. How about just ask them politely ? No tapping. No telling. Ugh ! Ok can ff to Norm now !
The Doctor is in and he knows what he's talking about...Listen
What a great man he is
A hate group
Is it possible you’re wrong?

NORMAN FINKELSTEIN, quite literally makes a difference in my life. As a singer-songwriter myself, i find his voice asJohn the Baptist's was described, "the voice of one crying in the wilderness. " Oh how I love this man! I have TOTAL LOVE & RESPECT for his VOICE. For me, he is MUSIC to my ears, for i love the mournful sound of his VOICE reminding me of an oboe, a cello, a viola and my guitar. This room, reminds me of the small clubs & coffee houses in the Village , the N.Y.C. Subway System and the venues i performed my folk-music in. And of Krystal Ball, well i REALLY appreciated her expertise at interviewing when she invited Norman Finkelstein to be interviewed on her show. And I REALLY, appreciated her expertise when she interviewed RFK Jr. & put his pro-Israeli feet to the fire and went toe to toe with his arse. And YES, I grew up in the 60's to 80's,...Vintage MUSIC. And once again, Unlike our present CANCEL & GASLIGHT culture: in those days MUSIC had a MAJOR impact on our LIVES and WORDS were soaked in the REALITY of the days we were LIVING IN.
Huh?
Ban AIPAC
An honourable man, thank you for your service to humanity
I love Dr Norman Finklestein he is an exceptional
So , that's what freest, most democratic , fairest country America is? 🤔😏
Whom do IDF resembles? Correct. There were no other like those .
An honest person would be unbiased and would criticize both sides because flaws are there both sides. It is foolish to take any sides on this mess
The host, while forewarning everyone else not to talk as the session began , couldn't have wasted more time giving introductions that were unnecessarily long just to be the centre of attention , and thanks to him, I cannot stay with this video (although it has my favorite Prof Finkelstein) after the 6 minute mark 😅 His vibe just ain't right
when is the trans islamist intersectionality issue going to be heard?
Thank you Dr Norman
This is one of the excellent presentations on the issue. May Allah bless Professor Finkelstein with good health and serenity.
Krystal is 100 percent correct. We will forever be indebted to Norman finklestein, and will forever be grateful for giving the Palestinians a voice when almost no one else would. Thank you Norman.
Why don't you try to build a country based on Islam,see what freedom you will have.

Thank you for the truth
I wish I was back in DC.
There is room for everyone at the rendezvous of victory! 🍉🍉🍉
So insightful conversation especially the questions at the end! ❤
Can we love Palestine and not hate Jews? Not all Jews support Israel and Holocaust survivors would not condone what Israel is doing. Norm is an example. I am Jewish and nonJewish friends are saying hurtful things but I have been for Gaza all along without reservation.😭. I have even lost the friendship of Jewish family members over this. 💔🇵🇸🙏💙😢
My respect for Jewish people keeps growing through this conflict. It must be difficult to oppose the tribe. Yet the most outspoken critics of the occupation are Jewish. Thank you for standing up for humanity beyond your identity :)
Fink loves his terrorists
such a good jew hates Israel and being jewish. good jew.
Thank you!
Room full of clueless people that don't even question his intentions or so called "facts"
