BAS SOU'AL | AFIKRA COMMUNITY PODCAST The afikra عفكرة Channel

In this episode of the afikra community podcast, Bas Sou'al, Abdulah Al-Ghoul talks about Aden, inspired by an Al-Jazeera article titled "Queen Elizabeth's Last Foothold in Arabia". He gives a brief overview of the key historical context around Britain's colony in Yemen, changing sentiments leading to the "Aden Emergency" through which Yemen gained independence, and the birth of South Yemen — the Arab world's only Marxist state. Finally, together with co-hosts Mysa and Yasmin, he talks about the important (but often overlooked) legacy and ongoing impact of the British in Yemen.

In this episode of Bas Sou'al – afikra's community podcast – Mohamad Tassabehji looks into the ancient art of tuna-fishing based on an article on Almadraba Tuna from Andalucia.com. He tells us about the ancient art of tuna fishing invented by Arabs and brought to Spain, explaining the fundamental techniques that still exist to this day.
