Ep. 153: From Gaza to Bethlehem, Palestinians Resist to Exist | Lucy Talgieh

From her balcony in Bethlehem, Deputy Mayor Lucy Talgieh can see the horizon that leads to Gaza, a landscape divided by walls and decades of conflict. In this powerful episode, Lucy shares what life is like for Palestinian women caught between hope and hardship.She speaks about the realities of displacement, restricted movement, and economic collapse—and yet, she insists that resilience endures. “We resist to exist,” she says, describing how women continue to hold families and communities together amid devastation. Recorded before the October 2025 ceasefire, this conversation remains a searing reminder of how fragile peace can be—and how women’s courage keeps it alive.Disclaimer: This podcast was produced with the financial support of the European Union.
