 This week on the Sumud Podcast, in commemoration of Nakba, we’re joined by Ahmad Abuznaid, the Executive Director of the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights & USCPR Action. Prior to joining USCPR, Ahmad co-founded the Florida-based Dream Defenders after the killing of Trayvon Martin, serving as Legal & Policy Director and COO during his time there. Ahmad went on to lead the National Network for Arab American Communities as the Executive Director from 2017 to 2019. Ahmad shares his insights on the intersection of Palestinian liberation and global justice movements in this thought-provoking conversation. He reflects on the role of youth in reshaping the narrative of resistance, the importance of international solidarity, and the profound impact of grassroots organizing in challenging imperialism and colonialism. Ahmad also discusses the moral imperative of resisting injustice and why standing for Palestinian freedom is crucial to the broader struggle for human rights. 🔑 In this conversation, we explore: ➡ The link between Palestinian liberation and global justice movements ➡ The power of youth-led activism in resistance ➡ The role of international solidarity in the fight for freedom ➡ Why resisting injustice is a moral duty, not a choice ➡ The importance of amplifying Palestinian voices in the global struggle This video is for educational purposes only.
