  • Great for those questioning Zionism

    Beyond Israelism unpacks how Zionist ideology. For anyone raised in a Zionist community and starting to ask harder questions, it offers language for a deconstruction process that can feel isolating to navigate alone. Highly recommend.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

  • Beyond Apartheid

    This is a brave story from the front lines of the fight against Israeli Apartheid and the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Powerful & insightful. A must listen for all committed to fighting for human rights for Palestinians & steering Jews worldwide back to the path towards Tzedek. My hat is off to Yuli Novak & Simone Zimmerman for sharing this important conversation.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

'Zionism Will Collapse' - Palestinian Scholar Tareq Baconi on The Nakba, Apartheid, and the Significance of Gaza
Q: What does 'return' mean as a political project?
Return is the right of all expelled Palestinians to go back to their homes, but it also signifies a daily practice of justice, decolonization, and political identity that extends beyond Palestine to challenge global systems of oppression.
'Zionism Will Collapse' - Palestinian Scholar Tareq Baconi on The Nakba, Apartheid, and the Significance of Gaza
Q: Nakba and memory anchor your work; how do you translate intimate family history into a political project?
By tracing personal lineage to collective dispossession, the interviewee links family trauma to ongoing structures of occupation, arguing that intimate memory becomes a tool to critique state policies and to articulate a vision of return and justice for all Palestinians.
