🎙Just dropped a powerful episode with @jessicaelgamil who spent 6 months on the ground in Egypt, where she supported mutual aid efforts for Palestinians and Sudanese people. This was recorded months ago in an effort to put it in series, but I am so behind schedule now and couldn't wait longer for it to go out. I know I've been gone for upwards of 6 weeks, and you can find out why by tuning in. Prayers welcome for my mother's speedy recovery and cure! 📿
🎧Hear about the differences in status and why they matter in resource distribution, and the intentions and barriers displaced people face as a result. Find out what both exploitation and generosity look like in local Egypt, and how mutual aid networks can do their work by avoiding red tape 🔴and just GETTING IT DONE.
Jessica shares lessons from the frontlines and what it takes to make mutual aid sustainable and rooted in care, not charity. This convo is a must-listen for anyone trying to do more than repost.Â
Tune in at 6pm EST and share this episode with a friend who wants TO DO something to subvert genocide and displacement, and contact Jessica today!
