YouTube Description
as posted by the channelOn The Freedom Side LIVE, Thursday, 1/22 at 12pm ET/ 9AM PT, Rania Khalek and Eugene Puryear are joined by special guests:
Husayn Karimi, labor organizer and journalist with On the Line, joins the show as a preparation for a statewide economic shutdown rapidly builds in Minnesota. Workers, students, and community groups are preparing to disrupt business as usual on January 23 in response to the killing of Renee Good and the largest federal ICE operation in state history, demanding an end to ICE terror and deportation raids. Can Minneapolis ignite a national general strike against ICE?
Josh Landis, director of the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Oklahoma, joins the show to discuss the collapse of the ceasefire and integration deal between the Syrian government and the Syrian Democratic Forces after armed groups loyal to President Ahmad al-Sharaa attacked and massacred the Kurdish resistance forces — and what it means for Syria’s future.
Navid Zarrinnal, Assistant Professor of History at Lahore University of Management Sciences and host of The Colony Archive, joins the show live from Iran with an on-the-ground report amid economic protests and escalating war threats from Trump.
Mara Kronenfeld, executive director of the UNRWA USA National Committee, joins the show to discuss Israel’s bulldozing of UNRWA’s headquarters in occupied East Jerusalem and what this escalating assault on the UN agency means for humanitarian aid to Palestinians.
Lea Kayali, an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement, joins the show to discuss Trump’s so-called “Board of Peace” for Gaza, an unelected, pay-to-play body to be unveiled at Davos on Thursday. Kayali will discuss what the colonial board means for Gaza and where the struggle for Palestinian liberation stands today.
