Tahrir Hamdi is a Professor of Resistance Literature at the Arab Open University in Jordan. She is the author of the award-winning Imagining Palestine and serves as an assistant editor of Arab Studies Quarterly. National identities are inherently fluid, shaped as much by collective beliefs and cultural practices as by official borders and territory. For Palestinians, whose national status remains contested, the articulation and imagination of national identity take on particular urgency. Imagining Palestine: Cultures of Exile and National Identity (Bloomsbury, 2022) examines how Palestinian intellectuals, artists, activists, and ordinary citizens envision their homeland, engaging with the works of key figures such as Edward Said, Ghassan Kanafani, Naji al-Ali, Mahmoud Darwish, Mourid Barghouti, Radwa Ashour, Suheir Hammad, and Susan Abulhawa. Drawing on decolonial and resistance concepts—particularly Palestinian sumud—Hamdi argues that the imaginative construction of Palestine is central to the Palestinian struggle. This interdisciplinary study, rooted in critical theory, postcolonial and decolonial studies, and literary analysis, offers valuable insights for students and scholars of Palestine, Middle East studies, and Arabic literature. Imagining Palestine received the Counter Current Award at the 2023 Palestine Book Awards. Bryant Scott is a professor of English and film studies at Hamad Bin Khalifa University and Texas A&M University at Qatar. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Dr. Shanaé Burch, Dr. LeConté Dill, and Dr. Ryan Petteway are in conversation with Mar Gubrium and Dr. Kevon Jackman. They discuss their inspirations and how their poems have ripened and grown with them. In light of the ongoing violence, they invite us to find and create spaces for more “living room” conversations, and reinforce the ongoing need for poetry for the public's health. All are invited to fill in the blank: Casting visions for 2024, public health needs more poems about ______________. This episode references the articles titled “Color Coded Care” by Kevon-Mark Jackman, DrPH, MPH and “My Body, Your Body, Our Bodies” by Mar Gubrium. From the personal to the political, we connect a hospital room in Florida and advocate for reproductive justice in Western Massachusetts with global cries for justice and peace. LeConté shares reflections that feature: Gaza by Suheir Hammad and Moving Towards Home by June Jordan. Shanaé closes the episode with Burning the Old Year by Naomi Shihab Nye.

Listen to the 88th edition of Free City Radio. This week I am sharing interviews from the archives given that I got omicron, the interview schedule slowed this week. Instead I am taking the opportunity to share some interviews from the archives of my community radio programming at @radiockut This is an interview that I recorded in 2009 with Palestinian poet and artist Suheir Hammad who was visiting Montreal. I though that sharing this interview would be interesting because the interview took place just as the global Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement was getting going in North America. Often the voices of artists within and linked to such global justice movements is important and interesting to explore. I feel that this conversation shares the feeling and vibe of where things were at in 2009 and I thought to share this exchange with Suheir. Also we hear Suheir reading "Gaza Suite | 3: Tel al-Hawa," in Gaza after the interview. Music on this edition by Secret Pyramid and the accompanying art work is an excerpt of a beautiful piece by Palestinian artist Jordan Nassar. Stefan @spirodon Christoff hosts Free City Radio, a podcast that comes out twice a week and also is a radio show that broadcasts once a week on CKUT 90.3fm in Montreal at 11am on Wednesdays, thank you for listening !

Safety: every law enforcement officer and every politician tells us that they're for it. And yet for many, police are a problem in their communities, and today's policies are only making things worse. If what we're doing isn't the answer. What is? We explore this issue, and what we all need to learn from the disability justice movement, with this week's guest. Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha is a queer disabled writer, performer, poet, healer and teacher, inspired by poets and authors June Jordan, Suheir Hammad and Audre Lorde. She is the author of several books of poetry, including Consensual Genocide and the Lambda-award winning Love Cake.

Jacqueline Suin is an anti-corporate globalization activist and film maker with Big Noise Tactical Media. This interview focuses especially on the recently released film The Fourth World War which she co-produced with Richard Rowley. The film was narrated by Tony Award winner Suheir Hammad and singer Michael Franti. It is a radical story of connection in the face of war and conflict that shatter and divides. The film includes footage from Palestine, South Africa, Quebec City, South Korea, Chiapas, Mexico, Seattle, Genoa, New York and Iraq. It's a deep and inspiring film. Sue and Jackie discuss the issues and the making of the film as well as her experiences in these places, especially Chiapas and Iraq. These young, committed and talented filmmakers also produced Black and Gold, Zapatista and This is What Democracy Looks Like.
