Diaspora

For our last episode of the season, we asked you what you think of diaspora. listeners offer their thoughts on land, spirituality, settler colonialism and food. and Tallie and Nava say good bye for now!

Tallie and Nava talk about how we changed our minds about Zionism.

Music in this episode is "All Other Things Considered" by Dresden, The Flamingo. Our theme music is by decibelists. (https://www.decibelists.com/)

This phrase summarizes so much of why we reject Zionism. And it has a surprising history. Join Tallie and Nava as we talk about Christian Zionism and why land matters.
