Recommended listening on Palestine
Flashpoints is a news program produced at Pacifica's KPFA in Berkeley, which frequently features coverage of and from Palestine. Nora Barrows-Friedman, one of the two main co-producers of the program, has been in Palestine for a month, and yesterday's program featured a one-hour interview conducted in person in the occupied West Bank with Hazem Jamjoum, the communications director of Badil, the Resource Center for Palestinian Residency and Refugee Rights. It's really an exceptional, informative hour, covering a wide-range of historical and current topics, and I can't recommend it more highly. You can listen to and/or download the show by clicking the first link above; it's the show of Wednesday, April 29 (for which, at the moment, there is no description).
Two thumbs up.
