YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this second episode of Zeteo’s newest podcast, Simone Zimmerman of IfNotNow sits down with a man whose name has become synonymous with the pro-Palestinian movement: Mahmoud Khalil, the Columbia University graduate targeted by the Trump administration earlier this year.
Filmed right before the Gaza ‘ceasefire’ was announced, Simone and Mahmoud have a powerful, wide-ranging conversation. Mahmoud shares new stories about his harrowing experience in ICE detention, the people he met there, and how the dreams of many marginalized communities are the same. Simone and Mahmoud also speak about Mahmoud’s solidarity with anti-Zionist Jewish students at Columbia, and how they worked together to demand divestment and speak out against a genocide.
