Special: LandBack & Right of Return: Sister Movements (p. 2 of 3)

Challenging Colonialism

Part 2 of 3 part series. As a podcast focused on illuminating ongoing colonialism and genocide, we recognize the need to address genocide happening right now in occupied Palestine and to stand in solidarity. Our podcast is dedicated to amplifying the voices of Indigenous communities who are left out of official discourse. As such, it is important to amplify the voices of Palestinians right now, as the mainstream media fails to do so. Part 2 explores LandBack and Right of Return as well as the ways in which alternative media is helping illuminate what is happening right now. We are grateful for the time and knowledge shared by our interviewees, and hope that this series can contribute to greater understanding, solidarity, and activism in the movement towards a free Palestine.
