Episode description
"... and in truth it is a story that is not mine nor hers; I am searching for the shape of what is ours."
Hear Sara and Joannie are in conversation with Palestinian writer and academic Micaela Sahhar. Together, they discuss Micaela’s gorgeous new memoir, 'Find Me At The Jaffa Gate,’ which aims to assemble and reclaim the story of her family through fractured memories, objects and places. This conversation explores how both objects and music can hold and preserve memory, the complexity of being heard amidst censorship and the importance of the anti-colonial archive.
Produced by Shareeka Helaluddin and Samantha Haran. Podcast edited and sound design by Shareeka Helaluddin.
