Honoring the Palestinian Resistance

What's up to my nifty nubian ibexes and perspicacious Palestine mountain gazelles!

Welcome back to the BNP y'all and thank you for tuning in! Shout out to my patrons: y'all are the drivers in my headphones and the Freon in my air conditioner.

This week's episode comes from the heart. I did my best to do right by a topic that feels like a car alarm constantly going off in my heart: Palestine.

The tenacious, obstinate and strategic Palestinian resistance to the colonial brutality of apartheid Israel, backed by the imperial ambitions of the U.S., is one of the most impressive and important stories of our time. As of 2AM on March 21, a ceasefire was declared. Make no mistake: this is a victory for Palestine.  

Palestinian voices featured in this episode include: Palestinian-American journalist Ali Abunimah and Palestinian-American lawyer and journalist Larah Elborno on the Electronic Intifada podcast, and Palestinian writer and activist Mohammed El-Kurd on Devyn Springer's Groundings Podcast.

Thumbnail cover art features Leila Khaled, a Palestinian refugee and member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. She has been in the struggle her whole life and is now 77 years old.
