Saiaf Abdallah: Fearless and Beautiful Resistance, Arrest, and Liberation

On this episode of the Sumud Podcast, we’re joined by Saiaf Abdallah, the voice behind @Resistance_Is_Beautiful. Known for his fearless activism, viral confrontations, and unwavering commitment to Palestine, Saiaf is always ready to share the blatant truth in times of injustice.

From being arrested multiple times to going head-to-head with Zionist narratives in public spaces, Saiaf shares how his upbringing, his father’s imprisonment for refusing to cooperate with the FBI, and the October 7th shift shaped his radical clarity and public resistance. He speaks openly about Zionist supremacy, American apathy, and the spiritual and philosophical grounding that sustains him.

🎯 In this conversation, we discuss:

➡️ Growing up Palestinian in Arizona

➡️ His viral arrest footage and philosophy of fearless activism

➡️ Why he believes America is in moral collapse

➡️ Censorship and media control

➡️ Advice to young people who want to stand up for justice

🔴 This episode contains raw truth, intense clarity, and a rejection of performative politics.
