From the Frontlines: Media, Colonization, and Resistance in Palestine
Manage episode 501016563 series 3230571
In the first part of the program, we’re joined by Dr. Ramzy Baroud, a journalist, author, and editor of the Palestine Chronicle. Dr. Baroud discusses cultural hegemony, the insidious tool of colonization that distorts an Indigenous people into submission. Dr. Baroud explains how the Palestinians have resisted this tactic which is why Israel has been forced to leverage ever more horrific violence, particularly in Gaza. Dr. Baroud also outlines the myriad problems in how corporate media portrays Palestinians, and how journalists in Gaza have changed the global understanding of where truth comes from - that truth isn’t shared unless those on the frontlines are also producers of the media. Next up, activist and educator Nikki Morse comes back on the show, this time to talk about their time in the West Bank with the International Solidarity Movement. Nikki describes the accelerated pace of ethnic cleansing, explaining the often intersecting web of oppression vis a vis settlers, police, the army, and Israel’s legal system. Nikki also talks about the importance of how we discuss and frame the West Bank, uplifting voices on the ground, and bringing more people to the frontlines to be in solidarity with Palestinians.
