Caught up on episodes #193 and #194 of the @thefirethesetimes.com podcast with Amos Goldberg on Gaza, the Holocaust, Holocaust studies and genocide studies and this whole, oftentimes very silly, debate — really informative for those who care thefirethesetimes.com/2025/05/25/i...

I edited this episode. It's really powerful. Hearing Maram speak at length about her daily life in Gaza under Israeli siege and bombardment is just ... I don't know how to communicate how privileged we are to hear the stories of someone resisting genocide. We need to listen, we need to do more.
