This episode is the first of a two part series we are doing on Palestine. This episode focuses on voices from Gaza, while the next episode highlights voices from east Jerusalem. You don’t need to listen to them in any particular order, but we strongly recommend that you listen to both in their entirety.
You will hear a lot today about the psychological toll that repeated wars, devastation, poverty, deprivation, and abandonment by the international community have had on the 2 million residents of one of the most densely populated stretches of land on earth.
We hope that what you hear inspires you to share this show with others and to take action.
Both of our guests also write for “We Are Not Numbers”.
Be sure to read this essay by guest Haneen AbdAlnabi about her experiences as a child in Gaza.
And read this piece by guest Anas Jnena about the past week of attacks on Gaza.
