UNLOCK 36.1 Asking Liberals: “Do You Condemn Imperialism?”

UNLOCK 36.1 Asking Liberals: “Do You Condemn Imperialism?”

Following up on my conversation with Toronto comedian Nour Hadidi: I'm haunted by one detail from the harassment campaign against her.

It's about how she posted the clip of Al Jazeera bureau chief Wael Al-Dahdouh refusing Christiane Amanpour's question, "Do you wish Hamas had never committed October 7th?" by dismantling its premise entirely.

I look at Adam Johnson's research on the "Do you condemn Hamas" formula as a media disciplining strategy, Frantz Fanon's analysis of the colonized intellectual required to perform Western values before being heard, Charles Cobb's history of the nonviolence demand inside the civil rights movement, and communications scholar Zohar Kampf's empirical study of adversarial ethnopolitical interviews.

Kampf identifies six options for interviewees facing the condemnation ritual, and only one of them doesn't feel like caving.
