Listen "Headline: "Silicon Valley, Censorship, and the Palestinian Struggle: Omar Zahzah on the Digital Age of Colonialism""
Episode Synopsis
In this thought-provoking episode of Scheer Intelligence, host Robert Scheer welcomes Professor Omar Zahzah, a leading voice in Arab Muslim ethnicities and diaspora studies at San Francisco State University. With a compelling background in both academia and activism, Zahzah delves into the intersection of technology, media, and the Palestinian liberation struggle through his groundbreaking book, Terms of Servitude. As the digital landscape evolves, so too does the narrative surrounding the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, often shaped by the powerful forces of Silicon Valley. Join us as we explore how corporate interests and digital censorship are reshaping critical discourse, the implications for global freedom, and the urgent need for creative resistance in a world increasingly defined by surveillance and control. This is not just a conversation about Palestine—it's a vital examination of freedom in the digital age and the power dynamics that challenge our very understanding of democracy.
