Pondering Palestinian Perspectives w/ Habeeb Makhoul (Part 2)

(Interview Recorded January 27th)After months of genocidal violence against the Palestinian people in Gaza, hope for a better future for the people of Palestine/Israel has never seemed further from reach, but what is the place of diaspora in all this? Friend of the show, Habeeb, once again joins us to explore the impact of the current crisis on Palestinian society, and to put current events in their wider socio-political context.While some listeners may be bothered by parts of this conversation, we believe that dialogues such as this one, have a crucial place in disentangling Zionism from Jewishness. A world of universal love, justice and equality, will only be possible when we listen to others, and understand how our interests coincide with theirs. Only through mutual understanding can we plot a course toward total human liberation.Patreon: patreon.com/TheJewishDiasporistYouTube: youtube.com/@JewishDiasporistMakingMenschesInstagram: instagram.com/thejewishdiasporistpod/Thank you to Sol Weiss’s and Molly Bajgot for allowing us to use their timely song: Cross the Sea.https://m.soundcloud.com/sol-yael/cross-the-sea
