A lot has happened over the last week in Syria, so we figured we'd gather together, as members of From the Periphery, to discuss the latest developments and provide a historical and political background to help understand the current moment. We discuss a broad range of topics starting with an overview of the what's happened in the last week or so, including: the origins of the Syrian revolution, the counter-revolutionary war, the abuses and crimes of the Assad regime, foreign interventions and regional factors, descriptions of groups such as HTS (Hayat Tahrir al Sham) and SNA (Syria National Army), Kurdish movements and the concerns of ethnic/religious minorities, the racist tankie 'take' industry, and the connections between liberatory movements for Palestine and Syria. We cover a lot but of course we couldn't do everything justice. We will provide links below for further resources, but also plan on doing more episodes in the near future on all these topics as things develop and progress.Support: You can support my work with⁠⁠⁠ ⁠a one-off or monthly donation⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Ko-fiMasterclass on Modern Lebanon:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Registration is now open⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter: Subscribe to⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Hauntologies⁠⁠⁠⁠Social Media: I’m on⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠,⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Mastodon⁠⁠⁠⁠Contact: To collaborate, reach out on ⁠⁠⁠⁠ayoub@thefirethesetimes.com⁠⁠⁠⁠The Fire These TimesSocial Media: TFTT is on⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Transcription: You can help⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Antidote Zine⁠⁠⁠⁠ transcribe TFTT episodes⁠⁠⁠ here⁠⁠⁠Website: All episodes are archived ⁠⁠⁠on the website⁠⁠⁠From The PeripheryTFTT is a proud member of ⁠⁠⁠⁠From The Periphery Media Collective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, which you can support⁠⁠⁠ on Patreon⁠⁠⁠ and follow on⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠.Check out other project wherever you get your podcasts:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Politically Depressed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Syria: The Inconvenient Revolution⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠From The Periphery Podcast⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠The Mutual Aid Podcast⁠⁠For more:Leila Al-Shami on ⁠⁠Mastodon⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠Ayman Makarem is on BlueskyKarena Avedissian is on BlueskyCredits:Elia Ayoub (host, episode design), ⁠⁠Leila Al Shami (host), Ayman Makarem (host, producer, sound editor), Karena Avedissian, ⁠⁠Rap and Revenge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Music), ⁠⁠Wenyi Geng⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (TFTT theme design), ⁠⁠Hisham Rifai⁠⁠⁠⁠ (FTP theme design) and ⁠⁠Molly Crabapple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (FTP team profile pics).

Dr El Masri spoke from first hand experience of commoning in "permanently temporary" spaces as she is herself a Palestinian refugee who was born and raised in Borj El Brajneh refugee camp in Beirut's southern suburbs.Support: You can support my work with⁠⁠⁠ ⁠a one-off or monthly donation⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Ko-fiMasterclass on Modern Lebanon:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Registration is now open⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter: Subscribe to⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Hauntologies⁠⁠⁠⁠Social Media: I’m on⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠,⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Mastodon⁠⁠⁠⁠Contact: To collaborate, reach out on ⁠⁠⁠⁠ayoub@thefirethesetimes.com⁠⁠⁠⁠The Fire These TimesSocial Media: TFTT is on⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Transcription: You can help⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Antidote Zine⁠⁠⁠⁠ transcribe TFTT episodes⁠⁠⁠ here⁠⁠⁠Website: All episodes are archived ⁠⁠⁠on the website⁠⁠⁠From The PeripheryTFTT is a proud member of ⁠⁠⁠⁠From The Periphery Media Collective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, which you can support⁠⁠⁠ on Patreon⁠⁠⁠ and follow on⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠.Check out other project wherever you get your podcasts:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Politically Depressed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Syria: The Inconvenient Revolution⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠From The Periphery Podcast⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠The Mutual Aid Podcast⁠⁠Mentions and Recommendations:A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities That Arise in Disaster by Rebecca Sornit Eleven Lives: Stories from Palestinian Exiles edited by Muhammad Ali KhalidiThe Ungrateful Refugee: What Immigrants Never Tell You by Dina NayeriPlaceless People: Writings, Rights, and Refugees by Lyndsey StonebridgeOrwell’s Roses by Rebecca SornitCredits:Host(s): Elia Ayoub | Guest (s): Yafa El Masri | Music: ⁠⁠Rap and Revenge⁠⁠ | TFTT theme design: ⁠⁠Wenyi Geng⁠⁠ | FTP theme design: Hisham Rifai | Sound editor: Elliott Miskovicz  | Team profile pics: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Molly Crabapple⁠⁠⁠ | Episode design: Elia Ayoub

In lieu of an episode this week, we're pleased to announce a new podcast within the From the Periphery network. We'll return to regular TFTT releases next week. -- -- -- Welcome to The Mutual Aid Podcast. Join Ayman and israa every week as they discuss, share, and explore all things mutual aid.

Larisa Jašarević, an anthropologist and author of "Beekeeping in the End Times," dives into the rich interplay between beekeeping, culture, and climate change. She discusses personal stories from Bosnia and Armenia, revealing how religious beliefs shape our relationship with bees. The conversation touches on the importance of traditional knowledge and community responsibility in environmental stewardship. Jašarević also tackles climate's toll on mental health in youth, connecting it to broader spiritual narratives and hope amidst crises.

For episode 174, Elia and Ayman sit down to talk about Lebanon.
