Description

Today’s guest, Morgan Cooper @mashjar_juthour, has lived and breathed Palestine for over two decades and is online telling Americans what her experiences have been as a Christian human in the land. She’s witnessed the DAILY government apartheid and violence against indigenous people and hasn’t been shy to speak up, a warrior mom to Palestinian children being raised on their historical land. Your heart will swell with pride, and break when she shares what she has to teach her kids to be safe there. In this episode, you’ll note us trying not to say “West Bank,” given what she’s has taught us about the language of colonization and violence. Morgan is a mom and environmental activist, preserving Palestinian land and culture in the ways she knows how: by raising proud Palestinian children, and supporting local female artisans so that the crafts of the land can recruit hearts outside of it. Handmade Palestine has been her passion project for almost a decade and through it, we can help support indigenous mothers and their liberation. Her message to Gazan mothers, well, another tearjerker.We thought about splitting this into two episodes, but it just couldn’t be done because of the efforts we had to let everyone know about on the ground to help Palestinian moms TODAY. So this may take the drive lines as well as your day’s errands to complete. For those out of school, it’s a good way to start a road trip, but we promise you’ll finish before you hit the next state.  Tune in at 6pm EST on Apple podcasts, Stitcher, Amazon Music, or head over to our website and take a listen, then share with ten friends who need to hear all about, and shop at, Handmade Palestine @handmadepalestine.Links:Follow Morgan on IG: @mashjar_juthourEmail Morgan for a farm stay: Info@juthour.org Purchase Palestinians crafts from women led co-ops to support artisans and Mashjar: https://handmadepalestine.com/ Support the Show.1.

Mommying While Muslim is a one of a kind podcast where two American born and bred Muslim moms share their experiences to raise second generation kids. Having experienced both pre and post 9/11 America, they're acutely aware of the unique challenges their families face on top of the regular messes that all moms share. Mommying While Muslim is a space to take back their stories, and tell those no one will air on the news or portray fully or fairly in the media.Zaiba Hasan and Uzma Jafri are moms first, careerwomen second, and global citizens at heart. They meet taboo topics head on because they weren't allowed to do it growing up, not at home or at school and work. They aim to better their immediate households, communities, and their momsisterhood the world over by telling the truths sometimes people don't want to face or to hear. Not everyone has the privileges they have, and they are eager to learn more than they are to share their own experiences. Always looking to give back, they find women and families who need a mic because no one needs a voice; they just need an opportunity to speak. Besides tough social issues, they also tackle political ones because when laws affect their kids, they're coming for them as well as the ones who make them! There's no lane that doesn't get taken here.Along the way, they recruit momallies for Muslim Americans who have been inordinately targeted for the last 20 years. True moms know that ALL our children deserve to be safe, loved, and happy, and we bust every yellow brick on the Islamaphobic road to make sure they all are. If you like good trouble, this one's for you!
