The launch announcement for our new Get to Know Project!!! We describe the reason behind creating and sharing these episodes. 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

We're capping off Season 1 with a conversation on Apartheid Off Campus. 4 AOC activists sat down to discuss our own experience in joining the movement, why others need to get involved and what the future holds for our student group.

For this year’s Kashmir Solidarity Day on August 15, we were joined by Hasan, a Kashmiri student activist.

This week we had the privilege of speaking to Malak Mattar - internationally-known Palestinian painter. We discussed what it meant to grow up under the violence of Israel's illegal occupation of Gaza. We reflected on her own work and how it continues to transform narratives and acts as form of resistance against Israeli colonialism.

This week, we were in conversation with Sham and Ruvimbo, the co-founders of Birmingham's “more than just a book club”, A is for Activism.

The first of many conversations to come, this week Daniella talks to fellow AOC activists Yasmin and Hatty about women in activism, how to navigate these spaces and what we will see in the future.

We discussed what it’s like to be a Palestinian on campus and how, as activists, we will never stop fighting for Justice in Palestine.

This week we spoke to Spelling Mistakes Cost Lives on how political satire and creative activism can disrupt narratives that more often than not go unchallenged in everyday life.

This week, we were joined by Lobna Alsana, a Palestinian student of architecture, activist and co-founder of the Sada Movement at the Bezalel University of Arts in Jersualem.

This week we were honoured to host Amir Marshi, a Palestinian student activist and co-founder of the Edward Said Forum (https://www.facebook.com/EdwardSaidForum/). Displacement, suppression of dissent and racism are the daily realities of Palestinian student life just like the students’ active resistance. Amir talks to us about his work in creating decolonial spaces at the Tel Aviv University and their importance in the fight against Israeli Apartheid as well as for the liberation of the Palestinian people.
