About this listen
In this episode, we’re joined by Elias Jahshan, a Palestinian-Lebanese journalist, editor and writer, for a powerful conversation about identity, belonging and reclaiming narrative.
Elias opens up about growing up Arab, queer and deaf, navigating racism, homophobia and disability and the deep tension many queer Arabs face when asked to separate parts of who they are in order to be accepted.
We explore his work editing This Arab Is Queer and Queer Arab Families, the weaponisation of queerness in political discourse, fetishisation in dating culture, trauma led storytelling in the media and why visibility alone isn’t enough without agency.
This is an honest, nuanced discussion about colonialism, queerness, grief, hope and the power of telling our own stories.
