Ahmed explores her viral confrontation with Israeli settler Dani Dayan at the Oxford Union, the Gaza genocide and its international enablers, the deep structures of Western support for Israel and why the very existence of Palestinians poses a problem for Israel. Karmi also reflects on one-state realities, Your Party, the truth about liberal Zionism, and how the wider public can resist despair and reclaim collective power.
The episode closes with the importance of language, and an introduction to Karmi’s newest book Murjana, set in medieval Baghdad.
