On the Nov. edition of Cultural workers for Palestine we hear reflections from Palestinian American poet and physician Fady Joudah. In this conversation Fady offers some extremely insightful reflections on the ways that the Palestinian experience remains solidly outside of the western framework of hegemony. Also Fady shares critical reflections on the ways that sympathy for the Palestinian experience today most often does not extend into a real space of resistance to the structures of western neo-colonial power that are both enabling and playing a role in the genocide of the Palestinian people of Gaza today.

283, Razan Ghazzawi speaking from Damascus on progressive social activism today in Syria
On this edition of Free City Radio we hear from Razan Ghazzawi, a Syrian writer and long time progressive voice on Syria speaking from the ground in Damascus. Razan speaks on the key challenges that progressive activists face today in Syria, looking at the importance of voices which are addressing the politics of Sunni victimization that the current government, lead by Ahmed al-Sharaa, has legitimized in some points of political discourse.
Particularly Razan speaks about the importance of speaking to realities like the March 2025 massacres that targeted Alawite majority areas along the western coastal regions of the country. Also the lack of systemic action to address wild fires in the hot season of 2025 is addressed by Razan. Critically Razan speaks about new contemporary political autonomous efforts of social justice activists working today in Syria.
This interview program is supported in 2025 by the Social Justice Centre at Concordia University. The music track is Passage by Anarchist Mountains.
