90. Saeed Taji Farouky: Palestine, Protest, and Resistance Through Filmmaking

Send us a text

What does it mean to create art in a time of genocide? How can filmmaking become an act of resistance?

Saeed Taji Farouky joins Rebel Justice to explore these urgent questions from his perspective as an award-winning documentary filmmaker, educator, and activist. Over two decades, his camera has taken viewers from Myanmar's oil fields to Afghan frontlines, consistently centering voices that mainstream media erases.

Throughout our discussion, Saeed offers profound insights into sustaining hope through creative resistance, the continuity of Palestinian culture through art, and the responsibility of institutions during humanitarian crises. "This is probably the one chance in everyone's life to participate in a liberation movement," he reflects, challenging listeners to overcome fear and find their own form of meaningful resistance.
