FROM L.A. TO KHAN YUNIS: ALL EYES ON GAZA
Manage episode 502876885 series 2539503
LET THE CITY KNOW:
You can also watch this episode via YouTube.
In this installment of J.T. the L.A. Storyteller Podcast, guest David Cowen and I discuss his being diagnosed with bipolar disorder as early as when he was 21 years old, Kabbalah and Zionism, Israel’s genocide through forced starvation in Gaza, as well as rising homelessness in Los Angeles and California.
We also shout out a special fundraising campaign for Khaled, only five months old as his family flees south from Gaza to the border with Sudan due to Israel’s latest campaign against the Palestinian people, known as “Operation Gideon’s Chariots II.” To learn more about Ibrahim and Nagham’s campaign for Khaled, please do so here.
From David: “Dave Cowen turns the religious into humor, finds the spiritual in the digital, and makes serious comics fun. His popular series of comedy Haggadahs for the Jewish holiday of Passover have been featured in The New York Times and include parodies of Trump, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Mel Brooks, Kanye West, and The Office. His debut graphic novel, 11 years in the making, AN IMPERFECT UNION, is available on his Substack SerioComics, which also includes Q&As with the best makers of graphic literature today such as Pulitzer Prize winner Tessa Hulls, Eisner winner Shannon Wheeler, Melissa Chan and Badiucao, Sina Grace, Yasmeen Abedifard, etc. Follow his stories and more on Instagram at (@_davecowen_).”
Thank you also to Nicolas Jara (@nicthejara) for video, Jacob on Sound (@fuller.sound), and Esteban (@marsbuiltstudio) for sharing his space for this discussion.
