🎙️ Episode 5 of 2 Pals & a Pod is out now!

We’re joined by the inimitable Amani Haydar, writer, artist, and advocate, for a powerful conversation on feminist praxis in a time of genocide. Together, we explore the links between state-sanctioned and interpersonal violence, asking: how can a race-critical, anti-imperialist, anti-colonial feminism help us make sense of - and resist - the violences we’re living through?

“Nothing could honestly ever prepare you.”

The third episode of 2 Pals & a Pod with Dr Bushra Othman is out now. Dr Othman is the first Palestinian-'Australian' woman doctor to go to Gaza, and recently returned from her third medical mission there.

Welcome to the very first episode of 2 Pals & a Pod!

We’re joined by Tan Safi, Gadigal-born, award-winning filmmaker, writer, and member of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla crew aboard the Handala. Tan and fellow crew members were abducted in international waters by Israeli authorities in July this year, as they attempted to bring aid into Gaza and break the illegal blockade.

Tune in as we explore Tan’s journey, what activism means in everyday life, who carries its weight, and how we can contribute in meaningful ways.
