Episode 1: The historical belonging of Palestine to global anti-colonial struggle
Episode 1 mixes resistance music and poetry, with the words of Legal Scholar and Associate Professor Noura Erekat on the history of the Palestinian revolution and its relations to other struggles against colonialism, imperialism and white/Judeo supremacy across Africa, Asia and North America.
Episode 2: BDS – Boycott, Divest and Sanction
Episode 2 focuses on the BDS movement, mixing music and poetry with the perspectives of BDS organiser Omar Barghouti, and the educational solidarity of different organisers from the South African movement against apartheid in Palestine.
Episode 3: Literature and Existence, or Land and Love
Episode 3 returns to the earth, and weaves the words of Waanyi writer Alexis Wright and Noongar writer Kim Scott with Palestinian songs of the valleys, trees, water springs and wells, the harvests, and the seasons - using different musical and vocal forms that Palestinians and other people of the region have practiced for thousands of years. The program also features the story of revolutionary cartoonist Naji el Ali, and ends with a depiction of the continuous dispossession of the Palestinians of the Naqab in Southern Palestine.
