Palestine Debrief

• Ink of Resistence - Interlink vs Censorship w/ Hannah Mouchabek

  Interlink Publishing is a fiercely independent, Palestinian-owned press—the only one of its kind in the U.S.—that’s been amplifying Palestinian and Arab voices since 1987. Known for bold, uncompromising titles—including bestsellers and frequently banned books—Interlink has remained steadfast in its mission, even as Genocide Bad draws coordinated smear campaigns and censorship attempts.Joining us today to talk about Palestinian storytelling in a publishing world that’s heavily gated and increasingly hostile to Palestinian perspectives is Hannah Mouchabeck—author, activist, and one of the siblings leading Interlink Publishing.Follow Hannah Mouchabek on Insta, X, and Facebook. Order GENOCIDE BAD here.

• The Vote Palestine Campaign w/ Yara Shoufani

  Joining me today is Yara Shoufani from PYM to talk about the Vote Palestine initiative and platform. The Canadian federal election has officially been announced last Sunday, marking a crucial moment for voters who care about justice and human rights. This election carries particular significance in light of Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza and Canada’s lack of a clear and principled stance since its outbreak. From delaying its call for a ceasefire to suspending funding to UNRWA based on unproven allegations, Canada’s actions have repeatedly failed Palestinians. Additionally, while the government claims to have halted arms exports to Israel, it continues to indirectly supply weapons through U.S. loopholes.With this in mind, Palestinian organizers in Canada have mobilized to ensure that Palestine is a key election issue.

• The Rise of Anti Palestinian Racism in Canada amidst the Genocide w/ Dania Majid

  To help us understand APR, its definitions, implication, importance of connection to the Nakba and how it evolved after Oct 7 I am joined by lawyer Dania Majid, co-founder and president of the Arab Canadian Lawyers Association, best known for defining APR in her 2022 publication Anti-Palestinian Racism: Naming, Framing, and Manifestations. She is also the artistic director of the Toronto Palestinian Film Festival.Despite an unprecedented spike in Anti-Palestinian Racism (APR) in Canada since the start of the genocide in Gaza on October 7 (details discussed in the Anti-Palestinian Racism in Canada 2023 Annual Report), APR has faced significant push back from the Canadian government. Nearly every mainstream media outlet has played a role in perpetuating APR, whether through biased coverage of Palestine-Israel, widespread anti-Palestinian rhetoric among commentators, or the framing of Palestinian rights advocacy as anti-Semitic. Understanding APR its real world consequences include job loss of voicing support of Palestinians, the justification of violence against Palestinians and their allies, and police using disproportionate force against peaceful protestors. Follow Arab Canadian Lawyers Association on X.Thank you for listening to the ‘Palestine Debrief’ podcast.
