Bitter Lake Presents Soundwaves: Palestine, Zionism w/ Nora Barrows-Friedman

In this weeks episode we had the pleasure of having author, journalist, radio show host, activist, and good personal friend of ours, Nora Barrows-Friedman!   

Since 2012 she has served as associate editor and audio production director for The Electronic Intifada, an independent publication focused on Palestinian issues. Previously, she was the senior producer and co-host of the "Flashpoints" show on Pacifica Radio. A resident of Oakland, CA, Nora is the recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Media Freedom Award from the Media Freedom Foundation.

So, she's a bit of a bad ass.  We got to discuss high school crushes, Nora gives us an introduction on what is Zionism, and the founding of the Nation State of Israel, and the apartheid state of Palestine.  We also got a surprise visit from comedian Chris Riggins.
