Cultural workers for Palestine - Author Zahra Ali

Free City Radio

On this edition of Cultural workers for Palestine we hear from author and educator Zahra Ali who wrote the critically important book "Women and Gender in Iraq: Between Nation-Building and Fragmentation" Zahra speaks about the connections and parallels between the reality on the ground in Palestine today and the media narratives that devalue and dehumanize Palestinian life. Zahra connects this reality to the post 9/11 political atmosphere that worked to undercut and dehumanize Iraqi lives, the cultural context that created conditions for the 2003 invasion.
