On press freedom for Palestine and reality of life in the West Bank ft. Nader Ihmoud

In this episode, you’ll hear from Nader Ihmoud. Nader is a Palestinian journalist based in Chicago. He’s the founder and editor of Palestine in America and the English media liaison for Palestine’s Baseball & Softball Federation. (and also a dear friend of mine)  Nader shares with us the foundation story of Palestine in America, what life really is like in the West Bank from his family stories and personal experiences, as well as the latest updates of the Palestine National Baseball Team.  We dive into the latest Encampment Edition of Palestine in America, looking at why the US government is trying so hard to crack down on student-led movements for Palestine. Nader also shares with us what safeguarding Palestinian traditional food and culture is like in the diaspora, stemming from the Deluxe Food Edition of Palestine in America.  As all eyes are on Gaza, we shed the light on what life is like for Palestinians in the West Bank. When did Nader and his family realize the kind of system Palestinians are living under? What is it like to drive with a Palestinian license plate, going through checkpoints in the West Bank, while enduring violent Israeli settler attacks on a daily basis?    Towards the end, Nader also shares with us what keeps him hopeful.  Follow Palestine in America: https://www.palestineinamerica.com/ Instagram: @palestineinamerica Download codes for Palestine in America:  Baseball Edition 2023: PALESTINE9 Journalism Edition 2024: PRESS24 Deluxe Food Edition 2024: OLIVES24 Encampment Edition 2025: TENTS Leave a comment and share your thoughts: https://open.firstory.me/user/cm2ebvejd0gjh01srcqsb2so3/comments Powered by Firstory Hosting
