On the Ground for Palestine - April 30, 2022

On the Ground for Palestine

Welcome to our second, still experimental, episode of a weekly podcast that will keep you updated on the news events and activism happening on the ground in Palestine and Israel. Each episode will be short, around 5 minutes long, informing you about the most important stories from the past week, and will be available as either an audio-only podcast or as a video podcast. We are very open to suggestions for how to improve the podcast. Our goal is to create something that is useful for activists for Palestine around the world. We want you to be able to stay informed so that your activism for Palestine is inspired and informed. You can provide feedback by emailing us at [e-mail].
