    72. Dana Ayoob Leota - How Can You Be Palestinian And Cultivating Compassion For The "Other" Amidst This Genocide?

    Welcome to Episode 72 of the Kinship Collective Podcast, we are ending otherness and cultivating kinship! Are you finding it hard to wade into the conversation about what is happening between Israel and Palestine in the Middle East right now? This week Dana Ayoob Leota joins us to talk about her family's history in the region and how she’s choosing to engage right now.  Dana exemplifies the maturity to be generous to those who disagree and talks a lot about how “othering” is a huge part of the conflict and the reason there is still so much violence in Gaza.  Then we reimagine Leviticus 19:33-34 and talk about “becoming”. Follow Dana on instagram @dbooya310 and learn more about the conflict from her recommended resources: IG Accounts to Follow: Reporter on the ground in Gaza: @byplestia  US Professor who shares a lot of good perspective: @nouraerakat Simple explanations and infographics: @letstalkpalestine  Jewish org that has a lot of good info and action steps: @jewishvoiceforpeace Books to Read Palestine - graphic novel by Joe Sacco A Land With People - collection of stories/poems, edited by Farmer, Petchesky, and Sills Against the Loveless World - historical fiction by Susan Abulhawa Subscribe, rate and review our podcast.  As you listen week after week and share the podcast we will keep ending otherness and growing solidarity!  Please share our podcast with a friend who needs to be part of a more inclusive conversation about scripture and community.
