Bahia Amawi

On this episode of the Sumúd podcast we uplift, empower and amplify Palestinian American and Muslim, Bahia Amawi. You may remember her as a courageous Texas elementary school speech language pathologist, fired from her job because she refused to sign the anti-boycott, divestment, and sanctions law, which asked her to take an oath of solidarity with Israel.  

On this episode Bahia shares her personal experience about the ordeal and how with the help of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), she was able to sue the state of Texas and win!
