Show Notes from Episode 82 and Links to Sara Elkamel's Work           On Episode 82 of The Chills at Will Podcast, Pete has the pleasure to speak with Sara Elkamel, poet and journalist, about her passion for the form, her work with surrealism, and her eye for detail. The two delve into three of Sara's profound and lush poems, with Sara generously sharing the background and thought process in creating the work.     Sara Elkamel is a poet and journalist living between her hometown, Cairo, and New York City. She holds an MA in arts journalism from Columbia University, and is currently an MFA candidate in poetry at New York University, where she teaches in the undergraduate Creative Writing Program.   Elkamel's poems have appeared in The Common, Michigan Quarterly Review, Four Way Review, The Boiler, Memorious, wildness, Nimrod International Journal, The Rumpus, Jet Fuel Review, etc. Her work has also been featured as part of the anthologies Best New Poets 2020, Best of the Net 2020, The BreakBeat Poets Vol. 3: Halal If You Hear Me, and 20.35 Africa: Vol. 2. She was named a 2020 Gregory Djanikian Scholar by The Adroit Journal, and a finalist in Narrative Magazine's 30 Below Contest in the same year. Elkamel's debut chapbook “Field of No Justice” will be published by the African Poetry Book Fund & Akashic Books in 2021.   Elkamel has designed and facilitated (often collaboratively) a number of creative writing workshops in art spaces and cultural intuitions in Cairo, Alexandria and Amman, Jordan, including at the Cairo Institute of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CILAS), The Townhouse Gallery, Medrar for Contemporary Art, and at the Mohammad and Mahera Abu Ghazaleh Foundation (MMAG).     Sara Elkamel's Personal Website   Interview with Washington Square: Sara Elkamel on Surrealism, Myth, and Gender in “Field of No Justice”   Sara Elkamel's “Heaven”   Four Way Review-Three Poems by Sara Elkamel   At about 2:40, Sara discusses what she is working on currently, as she has recently returned from Cairo after more than a year; she discusses how a collection of poems becomes a thesis when poetry is not inherently ordered   At about 6:30, Sara talks about her childhood in Cairo and her relationship with the written word, including her love of the book fair (!) and some early introductions to symbolism and    At about 10:30, Pete asks Sara about the connections between the familiarity of the US upon Sara's starting to live here and what she read in Egypt about the US   At about 12:00, Sara responds to Pete's question about the influence of the Koran on her writing   At about 13:00, Sara responds to Pete's question of how Arabic as a language lend itself to poetry, as seen through the proud traditions of poetry written in the language    At about 15:10, Sara relates a fitting Anne Carson quote   At about 15:50, Sara discusses some transformative texts that she read as she got older, including “A Little Sugar” from Hussein Jelaad in Beirut 89 and Alan Ziegler's class, where she read formative work from Ben Lerner and Carl Phillips, as well as work from Anne Carson-a gift from her boss    At about 19:25, Sara discusses her personal views on form, as she writes prose poetry for the most part, as well as form in contemporary poetry   At about 22:40, Sara glowingly explains her philosophy and process of editing       At about 26:05, Sara explains her views of “deciphering poetry”   At about 28:45, Pete quotes Sara from a previous interview and asks her what she means about the connection between poetry and “collage”   At about 31:35, Pete and Sara discuss “Field of No Justice” and the idea of the speaker as the poet   At about 32:50, Sara gives background on some themes and references/inspiration for “Field of No Justice”   At about 34:40, Pete highlights some intriguing lines from the above poem and asks Sara about her use of the bird as motif   At about 35:50, Pete asks Sara about surrealism and its connection to Egypt in both “older times” and in contemporary times   At about 38:20, Sara details Wadi Rum and its natural beauty and her connection to it, used as muse for her poem “The Language of the Body”   At about 39:25, Sara reads “The Language of the Body”   At about 41:25, Pete asks Sara about the poem-its repetition and “sinning out in the open,” for one, and Sara talks about the poem as a response to a prompt from Professor Catherine Barnett and more of its genesis   At about 45:20, Sara reads “Heaven”   At about 46:05, Sara responds to Pete's question, in response to the poem “Heaven” about challenges in writing shorter pieces and Pete recounts some profound lines as he and Sara discuss specific word and craft choices   At about 50:45, Sara talks about future projects and her impressive editing process You can now subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, and leave me a five-star review.

The speakers address aspects of Israel's illegal policies, including the withholding of bodies, arbitrary detention, collective punishment against Palestinian prisoners, detainees, and their families, residency revocation, and punitive house demolitions. They also highlight Israel's use of various forms of collective punishment with the intention of maintaining an apartheid regime over the Palestinian people as a whole. One of the contributors, UN Special Rapporteur, Prof. Michael Lynk, introduced his report to the Human Rights Council, which report focuses on the illegality of collective punishment. In his presentation, Prof. Lynk, warned that “like torture, there are no permissible exceptions to the use of collective punishment in law. And, like torture, the use of collective punishment flouts law and morality, dignity and justice, and stains all those who practice it.” Speakers: Michael Lynk - UN Special rapporteur on human rights in Palestine Rania Muhareb - Legal Researcher and Advocacy Officer, Al-Haq Munir Nuseibah - General Director, Community Action Center in Al-Quds University Budour Hassan - Legal researcher, Jerusalem Legal Aid and Human Rights Center Sahar Francis - General Director, Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association.

Dagens ordspaning står Erik Blix för och så kommer vår Ingemar Bergman-stipendiat Vincent Hashmi tillbaka och sjunger Taube. Att IS ska bekämpas och stoppas är alla överens om. Men hur? JAS-plan, fängelse, samtal? Ska vi prata med dem över huvud taget? Vi, västvärldens regeringar? FN? EU? Vita huset? Kommer vi närmre en lösning genom att förstå hur deras attraktionskraft fungerar? Cecilia Uddén samtalar med Nadine Wahab, Cairo Institute for Human Rights, Bitte Hammargren - frilansjournalist, Maria Bjarnevi, säkerhetsanalytiker och Leif Stenberg, chef för centrum för mellanösternstudier/Lund universitet.

Uddén i P1 direkt från Almedalen har idag tema journalistik. Om det hopplösa i att vara journalist i Mellanöstern 2015, ordspaning med Lena Andersson och skönsång med tenoren och Ingemar Bergman-stipendiaten Vincent Hashmi. Från den här scenen sände vi Revolutionsradio för 4 år sen - när den arabiska våren var ny och hoppfull, sen kom Skäggradio, när det muslimska brödraskapet tagit makten i Egypten, och i år - ja i år befinner sig Mellanöstern i ett blodigt skruvstäd av terror, våld, övergrepp, brott mot mänskliga rättigheter och pressofrihet. Därför sänder vi i år "Vi har inga lösningar-radio" från Sveriges Radios scen i Almedalen. I dagens direktsändning ska det handla om att vara journalist i Mellanöstern 2015, med alla de vita fläckar som reportrar har svårt att ta sig till. Vi pratar med Nadine Wahab, human rights activist from Cairo Institute for Human Rights, Borzou Daragahi, korrespondent för Financial Times och Somar al Naher, frilansjournalist och ledarskribent på Aftonbladet. Hur har arbetsförhållandena i och skildringarna av Mellanöstern förändrats sedan revolterna och den arabiska våren? Vilka är de största problemen med rapporteringen idag? Vi får också höra vad författaren och Augustprisvinnaren Lena Andersson fastnat för på almedaliska - det språk som utvecklas på, i och runtomkring alla de tusentals seminarier som hålls under veckan i Almedalen. Och så kommer tenoren och Ingemar Bergman-stipendiaten Vincent Hashmi till scenen och framför Havsörnsvalsen av Evert Taube.

Att det finns ett positivt samband mellan religiositet och livsglädje har varit känt länge. Men en ny studie som presenteras i decemberutgåvan av the American Sociological Review visar att det inte är tron i sig som skapar lyckan. "Vår studie visar att det är de sociala aspekterna i religionen framför teologi och andlighet som leder till livsglädje", säger biträdande sociologiprofessorn Chaeyoon Lim vid University of Wisconsin som lett undersökningen. "Det är den vänskap som byggs i religiösa organisationer som är den hemliga ingrediensen som leder till lycka", säger han. Det talas mycket om islamofobi, främlingsfientlighet och intolerans. Är det möjligt för olika grupper leva sida vid sida utan konflikter? Människor och tro gör en resa bakåt i tiden. I Andalusien, i södra Spanien, levde under medeltiden kristna, muslimer och judar tillsammans under muslimskt styre i flera århundraden. Hur såg egentligen relationerna mellan dem ut? Och finns det något att lära av det idag? Malena Wåhlin reste till Granada för att leta svar i historien. Egypten har genomför ett parlamensval där Mubaraks styrande parti NDP fick total majoritet. Den ledande opositionsgruppen Muslimska Brödraskapet fick inga platser alls. Att valet var manipulerat står klart för alla. Ledaren för människorättsorganisationen Cairo Institute for Human Rights Studies, Bahey el-din Hassan, betraktar det som ett icke-val och fruktar att frivilligorganisationer nu står på tur för regeringens försök att tysta all opposition, vilket anses viktigt inför nästa års presidentval. När Människor och tro talar med Bahey el-din Hassan är han övertygad om att telefonen är avlyssnad.   Utrikeskrönikan kommer från Sverige Radios Mellanösterkorrespondent Cecilia Uddén.
