This episode, with Miriam Osman of the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), goes right to the heart of the matter. We’re unpacking Zionism and anti-Zionism as keywords for Critical Zionism Studies, as we talk over Palestinian historical writing about Zionist colonialism. We discuss how understanding Zionism as a project of various powers — states, empires, and capital — is essential for defining anti-Zionism. Our conversation draws on Fayez Sayegh and Faris Glubb’s work on British and Nazi interest in Zionist colonization, then turns to the role of the United States. Miriam also explains PYM’s approach to political education about Zionism and anti-Zionism, and the importance of centering anti-imperialism.
