Beginning in 2021, when Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter (now X) censored posts by Palestinians protesting their expulsion from the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah to today's genocide in Gaza, Big Tech has advanced an imperialist agenda and betrayed its own alleged commitment to free speech and democratic values. Through alliances with the Israeli government and Zionist activists, they have leveraged their massive power to spread propaganda, silence criticism of Israel, and smear dissenters.


In our latest, we talk with Prof. Omar Zahzah (@omarzahzah.bsky.social), professor at San Francisco State, and author of "TERMS OF SERVITUDE: zionism, silicon valley, and digital settler colonialism in the palestinian liberation struggle," to discuss the censorship of pro-Palestinian voices, targeting of the Palestinian liberation movement in Gaza and beyond, and the spreading of Zionist propaganda being done by Big Tech. Please listen in on this important interview.


Bio//Omar Zahzah is a writer, poet, organizer of Lebanese Palestinian descent, and Assistant Professor of Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas (AMED) Studies at San Francisco State University. Omar has covered digital repression in relation to Palestine as a freelance journalist since May 2021, with work appearing in such outlets as Al Jazeera, Middle East Eye, Electronic Intifada, Mondoweiss, CounterPunch, and more. He is the Author of “TERMS OF SERVITUDE: zionism, silicon valley, and digital settler colonialism in the palestinian liberation struggle."
