Summary

In another crucial episode of Guerrilla History, we continue to examine Palestine and the various components of the conflict in Occupied Palestine. This time, we bring on Tara Alami to discuss the ongoing bombardment of Gaza and media misrepresentations/propaganda surrounding it. This is a really critically important conversation, and we hope that you will share it next week when it comes out on our general feed - this is something that we need as many people to hear as possible!

Tara Alami is a Palestinian writer from Occupied Jerusalem and Occupied Yafa, currently living in Montreal. You can follow Tara on twitter @taraxrh, and keep up with her work and mutual aid resources here.
