‘We Returned From Hell’: Palestinian Journalists Recount Torture in Israeli Prisons
<p>With the world’s attention focused on the fallout of yet another illegal war waged by the United States and Israel, Palestinians across Gaza and the Occupied West Bank continue to be rounded up, imprisoned, and tortured within a network of military detention camps throughout the region—many held without charges or trials, some indefinitely, others killed. We’ve released several episodes covering the ongoing genocide there, and this latest drop is a continuation, focusing on Israel’s targeted abuse, detention, and torture of Palestinian journalists risking their lives to report on the relentless atrocities and vicious humanitarian crisis that has claimed tens of thousands. Our guest is Sara Qudah, Middle East & North Africa Regional Director at the nonprofit Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ)—a leading global organization dedicated to defending truth-tellers and press freedoms worldwide—which recently published a damning special report titled ‘We Returned From Hell’: Palestinian Journalists Recount Torture in Israeli Prisons” exposing such unimaginable horrors. Speaking with us from Paris, she explains its key findings along with the plights of imprisoned and tortured journalists, and stresses the ongoing quest for accountability.</p> <hr> <p>News Beat is produced in association with <a href="https://www.mannyfacesmedia.com">Manny Faces Media</a>.</p> <p>Sign up for our free newsletter at <a href="https://newsbeat.substack.com">newsbeat.substack.com</a></p> <p><strong>Producer/Audio Editor:</strong> Michael "<a href="https://www.mannyfaces.com">Manny Faces</a>" Conforti<br><strong>Editor-In-Chief:</strong> Chris Twarowski<br><strong>Managing Editor:</strong> Rashed Mian</p><p><a href="https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=EYkdQRkbZ6vNTGfNSGWZjx7_15orqqDl8vkmrAg3TkxLprft1OguFwxlheC3tAkNd-KVPG&country.x=US&locale.x=US" rel="payment">Support the show: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=EYkdQRkbZ6vNTGfNSGWZjx7_15orqqDl8vkmrAg3TkxLprft1OguFwxlheC3tAkNd-KVPG&country.x=US&locale.x=US</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

MLK: What They Won't Teach In School [2026]
<p>Martin Luther King, Jr.'s legacy encompasses so much more than simply his 'I Have a Dream' speech, and his mission is as imperative today as it was then. We republish “MLK: What They Won’t Teach in School”—our 2017 inaugural episode—each MLK Day as a reminder of the civil rights leader’s lasting impact, the movement’s ongoing struggle, and still unrealized goals. Learn some of what the history books left out. Featuring interviews with Pastor Roger C. Williams of the First Baptist Church of Glen Cove, NY and Larry Hamm of the Newark, NJ-based social justice group People's Organization for Progress; original verses performed by hip hop artist Silent Knight; and King’s own words, listeners learn about MLK’s Poor People’s Campaign, which he believed would be his true legacy. More than likely, it was this that got him killed.</p> <p>News Beat is produced in association with <a href="https://www.mannyfacesmedia.com">Manny Faces Media</a>.</p> <p>Sign up for our free newsletter at <a href="https://newsbeat.substack.com">newsbeat.substack.com</a></p> <p><strong>Producer/Audio Editor:</strong> Michael "<a href="https://www.mannyfaces.com">Manny Faces</a>" Conforti<br><strong>Editor-In-Chief:</strong> Chris Twarowski<br><strong>Managing Editor:</strong> Rashed Mian<br><strong>Episode Art:</strong> Jeff Main</p><p><a href="https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=EYkdQRkbZ6vNTGfNSGWZjx7_15orqqDl8vkmrAg3TkxLprft1OguFwxlheC3tAkNd-KVPG&country.x=US&locale.x=US" rel="payment">Support the show: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=EYkdQRkbZ6vNTGfNSGWZjx7_15orqqDl8vkmrAg3TkxLprft1OguFwxlheC3tAkNd-KVPG&country.x=US&locale.x=US</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
