How Biases Silence Palestinian Human Rights. Bonus Episode

Join us for this special episode with Special Guest Her Excellency Mona Abuamara, Chief Representative, Palestinian General Delegation to Canada. In this very vulnerable and eye-opening conversation, Her Excellency Mona Abuamara and Dr. Abdulrehman discuss the relevant issues tied to the biases and stereotypes that Palestinian people are faced with worldwide that disempower their human rights. They talk about trauma, gaslighting, and even the personal experiences of Her Excellency Abuamara. They discuss common psychological experiences of abuse that people of all identities face and how the abuse of racism can sometimes cause people of colour and Palestinians to be weary of having to protect the comfort of those who abuse them. This special episode aims to build bridges between Palestinian people and the rest of the world watching what is happening in Gaza. Audio by Ryan Garcia
