187/ Round table: Where are the Arabs? Part 2

Our very own Ayman Makarem released his new video essay ‘⁠Where Are the Arabs?⁠’ on March 9, 2025. In this round table, he is joined by Elia and israa to expand on the topics discussed in the video, the context around it, and the need for more intellectual and class-based analysis on Arab nationalism and its many manifestations. If you haven’t watched the video yet you’ll still be able to follow this episode since Ayman provides a brief overview of the main themes. If you have watched the video, there are some key additions and interventions made by all 3 hosts that explore the themes of the video deeper. This is part 2 of that discussion, first published on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Support: You can support my work with⁠ ⁠a one-off or monthly donation⁠⁠ on Ko-fiMasterclass on Modern Lebanon:⁠ ⁠Registration is now open⁠⁠Newsletter: Subscribe to⁠ ⁠Hauntologies⁠⁠Social Media: I’m on⁠ ⁠Bluesky⁠⁠,⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠⁠ and⁠ ⁠Mastodon⁠⁠Contact: To collaborate, reach out on ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠The Fire These TimesSocial Media: TFTT is on⁠ Bluesky⁠ and⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Transcription: You can help⁠ ⁠Antidote Zine⁠⁠ transcribe TFTT episodes⁠ here⁠Website: All episodes are archived ⁠on the website⁠From The PeripheryTFTT is a proud member of ⁠⁠From The Periphery Media Collective⁠⁠⁠, which you can support⁠ on Patreon⁠ and follow on⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠ Instagram⁠.Check out other project wherever you get your podcasts:⁠ ⁠⁠Politically Depressed⁠⁠⁠Syria: The Inconvenient Revolution⁠ ⁠From The Periphery Podcast⁠ ⁠The Mutual Aid Podcast⁠⁠For more:Ayman Makarem is on ⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠Israa is on ⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠Credits:Ayman Makarem (host, producer, sound editor), Elia Ayoub (host), Israa (host), ⁠⁠⁠Rap and Revenge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Music), ⁠⁠⁠Wenyi Geng⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (original TFTT theme design), ⁠⁠⁠Hisham Rifai⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (FTP theme design), ⁠⁠⁠Molly Crabapple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (FTP team profile pics), Elia Ayoub (episode design).From The Periphery is built by Elia Ayoub, Leila Al-Shami, Ayman Makarem, Dana El Kurd, Karena Avedissian, Daniel Voskoboynik, Anna M, Aydın Yıldız, Ed S, Alice Bonfatti and israa abd elfattah.⁠⁠The Fire These Times⁠⁠ by⁠⁠ Elia Ayoub⁠⁠ is licensed under⁠⁠ Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
