Greetings from The Bronx,
Amira is a dancer who practices Raqs Sharqi, an Egyptian dancing style popularized during the Golden Age of Egyptian cinema. The dance is done at haflas (parties), weddings, restaurants, and there is even a version performed as a form of resistance.
We spoke about Amira's entry into the world of Raqs Sharqi, the history of the dance, her experiences performing in Egypt, and much more.

Episode 306 Canon in Drag with Artist Tirtzah Bassel
Tirtzah Bassel is a visual artist based out of Brooklyn, New York. She has gained worldwide praise for her series Canon in Drag - a series of paintings in the style of iconic artworks – subverts the authority of canonical images through gender flipping and altered narratives. We met at her studio in the Brooklyn Army Terminal to talk about her life, work, and all of the thoughts that Canon in Drag conjures in the minds of its viewers.
