This is the third part of a three-parts episode on the history of Kurdish-Palestinian relationship. In this part, you listen to the audio file of a talk by the late Professor Amir Hassanpour about Palestine originally titled "The Geopolitical Context of Palestine and the Israeli State." This talk was presented in 2012 at the Annual General Meeting of Independent Jewish Voices, a grassroots organization based in Canada that, as described on their website, “is grounded in Jewish tradition that opposes all forms of racism and advocates for justice and peace for all in Israel-Palestine.” Professor Amir Hassanpour was a long-time friend and comrade of the Palestinian People and their struggle, and an outstanding example of solidarity with Palestinians among Kurds.

Episode 16.1: The Politics and Poetics of Palestinian-Kurdish Affiliation, w/ Dr. Abed Takriti
This is the first part of a three-parts episode on the history of Kurdish-Palestinian relationship. In this part, I talk to Dr. Abdel Razzaq (Abed) Takriti about his chapter in a forthcoming book titled “The Political and Cultural History of Kurds.” This book, edited by Amir Harrak, will be published by Peter Lang, and it is dedicated to the prominent Kurdish scholar Professor Amir Hassanpour, who was a long-time friend and comrade of the Palestinian People and their struggle. Dr Takriti in his chapter in this book titled “The Kurd and the Wind: The Politics and Poetics of Palestinian-Kurdish Affiliation,” talks about the relationship between the renowned Palestinian poet Mahmood Darwish and the prominent Kurdish poet and writer from Rojava, Salim Barakat.
Dr. Abdel Razzaq Takriti is the inaugural holder of the Arab-American Educational Foundation Chair in Modern Arab History, Associate Professor at the Department of History, and founding Director of the Arab-American Educational Foundation Center for Arab Studies, University of Houston. His research focuses on the history of revolutions, intellectual and political currents, and state-building in the modern Arab world as well as on global histories of empire and anti-colonialism.
