John Oliver (30 June 2017). "Alex Jones". Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.

Further information: Slavery in modern Africa what does this have to do with xenophobia? The section on Palestinians not teaching about the Jewish Holocaust is xenophobic in what way? Do they teach German history in Israel? Why would they do that? What does that have to do with xenophobia? What does slavery have to do with xenophobia? On the section on Guyana not one reference uses the word xenophobia. So put it in racism, not xenophobia. Both African and Indians in Guyana are Guyanese citizens.
