Interview with Hossam el-Hamalawy on Gaza and activism in Egypt today

In this interview Egyptian writer, photographer, activist and author Hossam el-Hamalawy speaks about the ways that Egyptian social movements and organizing is impacted by the struggle for freedom in Palestine. Hossam speaks about how the current Egyptian government of Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has played a critical role in both suppressing dissent of social movements in Egypt today and how that is linked to efforts to silence real conversation and mobilization for Palestine. Hossam also speaks about how social movement forces in Egypt today are finding ways to push back. Read Hossam's texts here: https://arabawy.org Broadcasting on Thursday, July 18 on Radio AlHara at 3pm Palestine time, 8am eastern time. https://www.radioalhara.net Photo by Hossam, described this way: "Thousands marching into Tahrir from Giza, crossing the Qasr el-Nil Bridge, as clashes with the police troops fare in Mansour Street. Angry protests against the police continue in Cairo, following the massacre of Ultras Ahlawy Members in Port Said on 1 February 2012." This interview was recorded and produced for broadcast on Radio AlHara by Stefan Christoff.
