America’s Constitutional Crisis (w/ Katherine Franke) | The Chris Hedges Report
Q: What mechanisms exist to hold the Trump administration accountable?

Perfect Victims and the Politics of Appeal (w/ Mohammed el-Kurd) | The Chris Hedges Report

Growing up in Sheikh Jarrah was stressful and traumatic, filled with violence and displacement.
One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This (w/ Omar El Akkad) | The Chris Hedges Report
Q: Can you talk about the way language serves as a kind of buffer or a mask from reality?

The ‘Diseased Body’ of the Middle East (w/ Farah El-Sharif) | The Chris Hedges Report

Their response often reflects a capitulation to colonial rhetoric, fearing repercussions if they stand with the oppressed, leading to a crisis in moral leadership.
