Summary

Alexei continues his detour into Palestine as he and Talal welcome visual artist and activist Adam Broomberg to the show. Adam tells us about his life growing up in apartheid South Africa as a child of Jewish Holocaust survivors, the divides in his family, his numerous trips to Palestine and more.

Now living in Germany, he also speaks on a particularly tough time he's currently having with state-level accusations.
