New video essay is out! @aymanmak.bsky.social on the Sudanese revolution (and war) www.patreon.com/posts/new-vi...

In this time where Jewish trauma is often metastasised as far-right colonial violence, this burst of radical, queer, border blurring decolonisation is so refreshing and inspiring. They also entwine gracefully from global decolonialisms so it is not only interesting for Jews. 🖤 @ayoub.bsky.social

Elia and Esraa spoke to my dear colleague Maram Humaid about daily life in Gaza. So much of the news has focused on the horrifying images, the deaths, the amputations. Amid all that, so many have to keep surviving. This is what they discuss.

Listening to this is a MUST. Palestinians in Gaza are at a breaking point. Journalist Maram Humaid describes the unbearable situation, how people survive and how many Palestinians (youth, those with young kids) increasingly want to leave the Strip, no matter what.

In case I've only recommended this podcast 999 times:

I edited this episode. It's really powerful. Hearing Maram speak at length about her daily life in Gaza under Israeli siege and bombardment is just ... I don't know how to communicate how privileged we are to hear the stories of someone resisting genocide. We need to listen, we need to do more.

We spoke to Gaza journalist Maram Humaid about the many layers of Israel's genocide @thefirethesetimes.com. There was even an Israeli airstrike nearby during our recording. The full episode is available for free here www.patreon.com/posts/tftt-1... @fromtheperiphery.com

Amos Goldberg is an Israeli historian of the Holocaust who called Israel's war on Gaza a genocide. He joined @ayoub.bsky.social to talk about the ways 'intent' is used to mislead the public, and whether the field of Holocaust and Genocide Studies is in crisis. www.patreon.com/posts/tftt-1... 🧵
