Description

In Part 2 of the Season 6 finale of The Art Persists Podcast, we continue our conversation with journalist, filmmaker and writer, Dr Myriam François.Myriam chats to us about the rise of Islamophobia today and why she thinks it is often considered an acceptable form of racism within society. We chat about having hope in youth and why she thinks current student protests in America and beyond are widely misrepresented and misunderstood. We end on thinking about the role of the artist in solidarity movements.The Art Persists Podcast is independently run by Bosla Arts' small team (Georgia & Faz).
