    “The ICJ Can’t Stop Israel. We Must.” | Omar Barghouti & Aimee Shalan

    Why has global public opinion shifted so dramatically while government policy has failed to follow? Have protest, boycott and moral persuasion reached their limits? In the first episode of our second season of the Palestine Deep Dive Chat Show, Ahmed Alnaouq and Hala Hanina are joined by two leading voices at the centre of the Palestine solidarity movement: BDS co-founder Omar Barghouti and incoming director of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign Aimee Shalan. At a moment when the movement is asking itself some of its hardest questions, we look back at what solidarity with Palestine has achieved, where it has fallen short and what comes next.👉 Support us by becoming a paid subscriber from as little as £1 a month.

    “Why Must Palestinians Be Polite During a Genocide?" | Susan Abulhawa

    Susan Abulhawa joins Ahmed Alnaouq for a conversation about Gaza, literature, censorship and the power of storytelling.The internationally bestselling Palestinian-American novelist and author of Mornings in Jenin discusses her experience travelling to Gaza in 2024, bringing supplies and medicine, and mentoring young Palestinian writers whose lives had been shattered under the weight of a genocide.She explains why she believes Palestinians in Gaza must be at the forefront of telling their own stories, and why diaries, fiction, journalism and literature can become part of the historical record.The conversation also examines the intense pressure placed on Palestinians to police their language, the expectation that Palestinians should remain “perfect victims,” and the consequences writers can face when they refuse to moderate their words.Abulhawa speaks about returning from Gaza and realising that she had been censoring herself, the pressure she has faced in the publishing world, and why she believes that losing books, contracts or professional opportunities cannot outweigh the responsibility to speak out with force as Israel’s genocide against her people continues to unfold.👉 Support us by becoming a paid subscriber from as little as £1 a month.
