By August, "The mistreatment of Palestinians in the media in Denmark, has caused the biggest pro Palestine movement to boycott the mainstream media – and therefore I am honored that Bilal Al Issa agreed to speak with me."

Segment - Taking the Narrative

By Vega, "My production for this course is called 'Viva Palestina Libre' which would translate to something like 'Hail to Free Palestine.' In this production I wanted to show how the Spanish population feels about the genocide that Palestinians are suffering and how the media is covering it."

Segment - ¡Viva Palestina libre!

By Asmaa, Judi, Yasmina: "On the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, it is crucial to remember their right to resist illegal occupation with arms. That being said, we have invited two people to be interviewed in our podcast. With this being a student-led production, we have decided to welcome two Palestinian LAU students to hear their voices on the Palestinian struggle to resist in light of the recent war on Gaza and the demonization of the resistance in the media. We also aim to reiterate the Internationally recognized right of the Palestinians to resist illegal occupation with arms."
