Host Salma Abu Ayyash interviews Dr. Mazin Qumsiyeh who is on a "Winds of Change: Popular Resistance in Palestine" tour with his newest book "Popular Resistance in Palestine, A History of Hope and Empowerment". We discuss the rich history of Palestinian popular resistance, which spans the Ottoman, British and finally the Zionist colonial project in Palestine. We discuss misrepresentations and stereotypes and the machinery employed by a colonizer such as Israel to suppress and misrepresent the Palestinian resistance. Dr. Qumsiyeh shares with us his vision of a just and peaceful resolution of this oppression and gives us his visionary outlook for the future.
Salma Abu Ayyash, program founder Sherif Fam (1936-2010), producers Martin Voelker, Stan Robinson, Steve Cornie, and the entire staff of WZBC.
This is not the first time Professor Qumsiyeh has appeared on this program, nor will it be the last. His continuing work is a source of inspiration. He maintains an active website, qumsiyeh.org, which we recommend.
Since the sad and untimely death of "This Week In Palestine" originator and longtime producer Sherif Fam (1936-2010), a small group of his close friends have committed themselves to continuing this treasured weekly 45-minute presentation. It's part of Truth and Justice Radio (website: truthandjusticeradio.org) on WZBC 90.3 FM (Newton, MA). Salma expects to continue the series on Edward Said when she next returns to air.
