Roqayah is off this week, so Kumars is joined for the hour from Ramallah by writer, translator and returning guest Rawan Masri, cofounder of the online archive and resource hub decolonizepalestine.com. Rawan shares her analysis of the ceasefire in Gaza before turning to the West Bank to break down Israel’s unprecedented escalation, what annexation would actually look like, and the curious revival of armed Palestinian resistance.
