Season 4 of The Tea with Myriam François launches today with a heart-wrenching conversation featuring Palestinian writer Ahmed Alnaouq, co-editor of We Are Not Numbers, a groundbreaking anthology of personal stories from young Palestinians.
In this powerful episode, Ahmed shares what it means to survive war, censorship, and unimaginable personal loss in Gaza. And makes a direct appeal to the world: “People have the power to stop the siege in Gaza”.
Set against the backdrop of an ongoing genocide — where even seeking food can mean death — the conversation explores the meaning of resistance and what real solidarity requires. From the failures of the aid system to the urgency of global inaction, Ahmed challenges us to go beyond symbolic protest and scale up our action: sustained boycotts and relentless pressure on complicit institutions.
🛑 The death trap of the aid machine in Gaza
🛑 Why Israel is arming ISIS affiliated gangs
🛑 Palestinians have the right to armed resistance
🛑 Why the two-state solution is not an option anymore
🛑 People have the power to stop the genocide
This episode is more than just a discussion. It's a call to conscience. We must do more.

You’ve heard about Dubai’s glittering skyline—but what’s buried beneath it?
In this explosive episode of The Tea, Dr. Andreas Krieg—defence analyst and expert on Gulf geopolitics—joins Myriam François to pull back the curtain on the UAE and Saudi Arabia’s growing regional empire.
🛑 From gold smuggled out of Sudan to fund militias and fuel genocide
🛑 From AI-powered smart cities in Saudi Arabia to the weaponisation of surveillance
🛑 From influencers selling the Dubai dream to activists rotting in Gulf prisons
🛑 From Gulf-backed Islamophobia campaigns to the global export of censorship
What happens when free speech is criminalised, dissent is silenced, and truth is turned into a weapon?
This is the war they don’t want you to see. This is the power network no one wants to name. Think you know the Middle East? Think again.

This week on The Tea with Myriam Francois, journalist and critic of U.S. foreign policy Aaron Maté joins us for a deep dive into Palestine, ‘Jewishness,’ and the media narratives around them. As a Jewish voice opposing Israel’s violence, he’s been dismissed and sidelined — but he’s not backing down.
From the devastation in Gaza to the discourse in Washington, Maté thoughtfully explores how identity can be instrumentalized, how definitions of antisemitism are being reshaped in politics, and why solidarity with Palestinians is not only compatible with Jewish identity — but essential to its integrity.
🛑 Zionism vs. Judaism – What happens when a political project lays claim to a religious identity?
🛑 Hasbara 2.0 – Israel’s PR machine and the manufacturing of moral consent.
🛑 Gaza and Genocide – Is the world finally waking up to reality?
🛑 Jewish Identity Under Siege – What happens when dissenting Jews are cast out?
This episode is a deep dive into the identity politics of empire — and the people refusing to be used by it.

He’s lived it. Now he’s naming it.
This week on The Tea with Myriam Francois, U.S. veteran and outspoken anti-imperialist Greg Stoker joins us to pull back the curtain on the deadly intersections of military strategy, state violence, and imperial branding—from Gaza’s decimation to Western propaganda operations and privatized warfare.
Forget press releases. This is war without the gloss.
🛑 Gaza’s Ground Offensive – Is this a strategy shift, or state-led ethnic cleansing?
🛑 Private Mercenaries in the Middle East – Who’s paying, who’s fighting, and who’s accountable?
🛑 Project Esther – How redefining antisemitism is weaponized to crush critique.
🛑 The Abraham Accords – Peace deals, or PR for arms trades and surveillance empires?
🛑 Trump and Empire – Not the architect—just the most honest salesman.
🛑 The New Right’s “Pro-Palestinian” Turn – Is Candace Owens standing for justice—or hijacking the cause?
This episode isn’t just about modern warfare—it’s about modernized colonialism, dressed in the language of freedom, peace, and security.
👀 Think you know what war looks like today? Think again.

Are universities ready to lead real change, or are they still upholding the same structures of dominance? Is “decolonising” from within a path to genuine transformation, or just a new label for old hierarchies? With Trump in the White House and the genocide in Gaza ongoing, will this be the moment that exposes the limits of Western morality?
How do we build real community and care for each other in a system that values profit over people, leaving the most vulnerable on the margins? What does solidarity look like when the system thrives on division?
Join Myriam Francois and decolonial scholar Hasanain Jaffer for a bold conversation on what it really takes to challenge the power of the imperial core from inside its own institutions.

You’ve seen him on the inside. Now hear him on The Tea.
In this rare, no-holds-barred conversation, Daniel Levy—former Israeli peace negotiator—sits down with Myriam Francois, and nothing is off-limits.

🛑 From his service in the IDF to questioning Zionism itself
🛑 From personal stakes to global complicity in Gaza’s nightmare

In his most revealing and intimate interview yet, British-Gambian scholar and activist Momodou Taal joins The Tea with Myriam Francois from an undisclosed location—for his own safety via a video recording.
For the first time, he opens up about the personal toll of being targeted, suspended, and ultimately forced out of the U.S. for his outspoken support of Palestinian rights. From the attempted arrest and Cornell’s institutional response, to the growing web of AI surveillance and the cost of international solidarity—this conversation peels back the curtain on a terrifying new era of political repression.
He unpacks the uncomfortable double standards in how dissent is policed, draws powerful connections between Black liberation and Palestinian resistance, and reflects on how to hold onto hope—even as he warns that Zionism may be entering its final chapter.
This isn’t just a story about student activism—it’s a warning, a reckoning, and a call to resist.

The Billionaire-Funded Fascist Machine & the Global Assault on Democracy | Nafeez Ahmed on The Tea with Myriam Francois
What if the far-right surge sweeping the globe isn’t a new threat—but the latest phase of a decades-long plot, quietly bankrolled by billionaires, right-wing think tanks, and tech moguls like Elon Musk? Investigative journalist and systems theorist Nafeez Ahmed uncovers the shocking connections between Nazi-era eugenics, corporate greed, and the rise of authoritarianism across Europe and the US.
From the secret history of the Pioneer Fund to the dangerous ideology shaping today’s policies, this episode exposes how racist pseudoscience, radical libertarianism, and corporate propaganda are weaponized to dismantle democracy and fuel hatred—one viral meme at a time.
Is the real threat to democracy hiding in plain sight? And can we break free from the grip of these billionaire-backed networks before it’s too late?
Join Myriam Francois for a no-holds-barred investigation into the dark money, dirty tactics, and dangerous ideologies shaping our world.

You've Been Lied To — Capitalism Was Never About Freedom | Grace Blakeley Exposes the Big Scam
What if everything you’ve been told about success, hard work, and freedom was a carefully crafted illusion? In this explosive episode of Tea with Myriam Francois, economist and author Grace Blakeley pulls back the curtain on the biggest lie of our time — capitalism isn’t broken, it’s doing exactly what it was designed to do: funnel wealth and power to the top while leaving the rest of us fighting for scraps.
From the neoliberal con to the rise of the far right, from billionaire propaganda to why we were sold the myth of "freedom through markets," this is the conversation they don’t want you to hear.
If you’ve ever felt like the system is rigged — you’re not imagining it. This is your wake-up call.

The Psychosis of Whiteness, Black Power & the Global Struggle for Justice | Kehinde Andrews on The Tea with Myriam Francois.
Is the world trapped in a dangerous delusion? In this uncompromising conversation, Professor Kehinde Andrews breaks down the “psychosis of whiteness”, exposing how deep-seated myths about race sustain global inequality. From the failures of diversity schemes to the rise of far-right politics, from Trump’s return to power to the new wave of Black radical thought, he argues that true change won’t come from within the system—it demands revolution.
What does Black liberation look like in a world still shaped by empire? Can Pan-Africanism offer a real path forward? And is China a counterforce to Western dominance—or just another empire in disguise?
Join Myriam Francois for a fearless discussion that connects race, politics, and global power in ways few dare to.

Is the media hiding war crimes? Are journalists being silenced for exposing the truth? In this explosive, unfiltered conversation, Owen Jones reveals how Western media manipulates narratives, protects the powerful, and punishes those who dare to challenge it.
🔹 Owen Jones’ Explosive BBC Report – His 9000-word investigative piece exposed the systemic pro-Israel bias within the BBC, revealing how headlines were manipulated, Palestinian deaths were downplayed, and Israeli narratives were prioritized—sparking internal backlash and a media firestorm
🔹Gaza & the Media’s Moral Collapse – Why do war crimes in Ukraine get full coverage, while Palestinian lives are erased from the headlines? The shocking double standards in Western reporting.
🔹 The 40 Beheaded Babies Lie & Western Propaganda – How one of the most shocking falsehoods spread by media and politicians was used to justify indiscriminate violence against Palestinians, while actual war crimes went unreported.
🔹 Sexual Violence Allegations & Double Standards – Why have unverified claims against Hamas been amplified, while documented cases of Israeli soldiers committing rape and sexual violence against Palestinian detainees have been ignored? The role of the ICC and media complicity in covering up these crimes
🔹 The Crackdown on Free Speech – Why are journalists being fired, blacklisted, or smeared for reporting on Gaza? From the BBC to MSNBC, the system is rigged against the truth.
🔹 War Propaganda & Legal Consequences – Should media figures who helped justify war crimes face accountability? History says they should—from Nuremberg to Rwanda.
With trust in mainstream media at an all-time low and governments tightening control over speech, this conversation reveals the uncomfortable truths they don’t want you to hear.

Muslims don’t matter… or at least, that’s the message from those in power. Islamophobia is at an all-time high, with a shocking 236% rise in hate incidents and violent riots targeting Muslims across the UK—but why weren’t they called race riots? And who’s really fueling the fire?
💥 NO working definition of Islamophobia—why?
💥 Grooming gangs & the false narrative—how Muslims became the scapegoat
💥 Has our government been hijacked by far-right extremists?
💥 Far-right Jewish extremism—why isn’t it being called out?
💥 The UK’s summer race riots—why won’t the media tell the truth?
With Trump back in power, Elon Musk boosting violent Islamophobes, and the Conservative Party shifting further right, the Islamophobia industry is bigger than ever. Who benefits from this hate?
🔴 Baroness Sayeeda Warsi—former cabinet minister and author of Muslims Don’t Matter—joins us to EXPOSE the networks, the lies, and the terrifying future we’re heading toward.

In the powerful finale of The Tea Season 1, Myriam Francois sits down with BAFTA and Emmy-winning Palestinian filmmaker Yousef Hammash to uncover the raw, unfiltered truth about Gaza during one of the darkest chapters in its history. As the world turns its eyes elsewhere, Yousef sheds light on the untold stories of survival, loss, and resilience under occupation, offering a perspective few have heard before.
Known for his evocative films One Day in Gaza and Gaza: Daring to Dream, and his award-winning Channel 4 report Inside the Gaza Siege, Yousef opens up about the emotional toll of documenting the genocide of his own people, what life is really like in Gaza, and the shocking realities global media often fails to cover.
In this gripping and emotional episode, we dive into:
👉 The heartbreaking realities of life under siege in Gaza, where 90% of the population has been displaced.
👉 The emotional weight of making films about the genocide of your own people.
👉 The truth behind the Saudi normalization deals and the price Palestinians are paying.
👉 Harrowing stories of Gaza’s orphans and displaced families struggling to survive.
👉 Why more than 190 Palestinian journalists have been killed—and what the world isn’t saying.
👉 The disconnect between the reality on the ground and what we see on our screens.
👉 Busting the biggest myths and misconceptions about Palestine and Israel.
Yousef doesn’t shy away from addressing hard truths, including the mental toll of witnessing endless violence, the courage of those still reporting under fire, and the hypocrisy of international narratives that ignore Palestinian suffering.
This episode is not just a discussion—it’s a call to wake up to the reality of Gaza, the voices silenced, and the stories untold.
🌍 As we close the season, we reflect not just on Gaza, but on the ongoing struggles for justice and dignity around the world. From Palestine to Congo, Sudan to Syria, we stand with all those fighting for freedom and peace.
Don’t miss this eye-opening conversation that will change how you see the crisis in Gaza. Click to watch, subscribe for more episodes, and join us on Patreon to support our mission of sharing stories that matter.
