A student of history — human, Indigenous, colonized and migratory — Muhannad uses words as a tool for resistance and reclamation.
He shares how writing became his emotional outlet, how his curiosity in the past is shaping his future work, and why poetry isn't about performance for him — it's about presence.
🎤 Hosted by Spin El Poeta and produced by THE DOPE CONTENT, this episode dives into what it means to be a BIPOC creative navigating personal truth, cultural memory, and creative growth.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
