Podcast Overview
<blockquote>Bearing Witness is a fact-based human rights podcast examining how systems of violence operate abroad and at home—through the lenses of Palestine and U.S. immigration enforcement. Hosted by a U.S.-based activist, the show explores military occupation, detention, deportation, and the language of “security” used to justify harm. Each episode combines historical context, current reporting, and clear analysis, alongside personal commentary that rejects false neutrality in the face of mass suffering. This podcast does not speak for the oppressed. It documents what is being done to them and asks who benefits from our silence. honesty. If you’re uncomfortable, stay.<br>If you’re defensive, listen anyway. Discomfort is often the first sign that the story you’ve been told is incomplete.</blockquote>
