The MPAC Podcast with Salam Al-Marayati

On October 28, 2026 By MPAC

In this clip from Episode 12 of The MPAC Podcast, host Salam Al-Marayati and award-winning journalist Karen Attiah examine the generational shift in American public awareness around Palestine. Tracing the transformation from five-person rallies decades ago to mass national demonstrations today, Karen explains how institutional authority resorts to censorship and force once it permanently loses the moral and visual narrative.
