  “If I Must Die” MEMO in Conversation with Yousef Aljamal
  
  In this episode of A Conversation with MEMO, we speak with Yousef M Aljamal, editor of the book If I Must Die by the late Dr Refaat Alareer. The episode focuses on Refaat’s final poem, written shortly before he was assassinated by Israel, and how the book came together in the months after his death. Yousef talks about the personal and political meaning of the poem and why it has become a symbol of Palestinian resistance around the world. We also discuss the challenges of editing the book while still grieving, and what it means to protect the voice of someone who can no longer speak for himself. Yousef shares memories of Refaat as a teacher, mentor and writer who […]

  Political thinker Saif al-Din Abdel-Fattah: The events in Gaza have revived global opposition to aggression and genocide
  
  The Arab Book Fair in Istanbul, held in the second week of last August, featured an important new book: “The Dictionary of Resistance: The Al-Aqsa Flood and Its Centrality in the Coming Great Change” by Prof. Dr. Saif al-Din Abdel-Fattah, Professor of Political Theory and Thought at Cairo University. In this book, Abdel-Fattah closely follows the Al-Aqsa Flood since its outbreak on October 7, 2023. We met the political thinker and discussed with him his vision of the Flood, the role of resistance against the occupation, his interpretation of Palestinian steadfastness, and the regional and global reactions — both popular and official. We also touched on his expectations for the future of the Palestinian cause in light of the Flood […]

  Daybreak in Gaza: Stories of Palestinian Lives and Culture
  
  Daybreak in Gaza: Stories of Palestinian Lives and Culture is a powerful collection of essays, testimonies and reflections edited by Mahmoud Muna and Matthew Teller. It brings together over 300 contributors writing from Gaza and beyond amid the ongoing genocide. The result is a powerful, often raw, and consistently moving testimony of a society facing annihilation—yet still holding on to its history and humanity. The book was compiled in just three months after the launch of Israel’s devastating assault on the besieged enclave in 2023. Amid bombardment, displacement and communication blackouts, contributors shared their testimony and offered their reflections. Some sent voice notes in the dead of night; others relayed fragments of their testimony through broken connections. Together, the pieces […]

  Recognising Palestine, Enabling Genocide: The Duplicity of Global Powers | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani
  
  In this episode of Palestine This Week, we unpack a flurry of diplomatic, military and geopolitical developments shaping Palestine and the wider region. Host Nasim Ahmed is joined once again by analyst Mouin Rabbani to explore the wave of state recognitions of Palestine—why it’s happening now, and what it might mean in practice. The conversation also dissects Israel’s furious reaction to this recognition. With G7 members now backing Palestinian statehood, we ask whether they are prepared to take concrete punitive action if Israel proceeds with annexation of the West Bank. We also turn to Donald Trump’s upcoming summit with key Arab and Muslim leaders, where he is expected to lay out his so-called “principles” for post-war Gaza governance. What’s actually […]
