  • Transparent Conversations

    I was drawn to this podcast because of the must needed objective conversations around Palestine. As a first generation Canadian of Palestinian immigrants that arrived in 1965, these conversations on various platforms are long overdue. Dania was so accurate in her episode. Excellent job!
