One Year of October: The People (The North State Podcast)

The third and final episode in The North State podcast on the Canadian response to Israeli genocide. While the first two parts examined the journalist and government response to Israel's slaughter, today we focus on the deeply personal. RSS feed here.

Description:

So far in this series, we’ve discussed the function of journalism and the government in Canada. It’s important to bring the conversation down to a personal level and examine how the current climate has affected Palestinian-Canadians and their connections to Palestine. Additionally, it's crucial to know the perspective of Jewish people, whom Israel proclaims to speak in the name of. Today, Scott speaks with Maryam Afana, a Canadian born in Gaza who now lives in Toronto; Fatima Saleh, a Canadian born Palestinian activist based in Alberta, and Gur Tsabar, spokesperson for the Jews Say No to Genocide coalition based in Toronto.
