In this conversation, Isaac Peltz interviews Samira Mohieddin, a journalist and former CBC producer, about her life journey from Iran to Canada, her career in journalism, and her perspectives on the ongoing conflict in Israel and Palestine. Samira discusses her experiences as a queer woman in journalism, her resignation from CBC following the October 7th attacks, and her views on media bias, genocide, and the identity and nationalism in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. How is biblical language being employed to create fervour ?
"Israel does not like history."
"This is a theater of the absurd."
"Canada rewards terror."
Samira was gracious enough to have an interview with Isaac despite her incredibly busy schedule. Isaac's audio got totally wack, and we're sorry about that. Please check out her work here:
