S6: Episode 34 - Rania Khalek On Her Trip To Damascus

Rania Khalek is back after a break. She talks about her trip to Damascus and the backlash that ensued. We name names, and Rania pointedly replies to some of the worst attacks against her. Many of these were spread with the intent to make further toxic to publications and isolate her so she cannot make a living doing journalism. Rania grapples with what it is like to endure this vitriol from the left. It is much harder when it comes from people who should be on our side. This is highly destructive to building solidarity within progressive or left-wing media.
