Summer Interns - Young and Palestinian

We'd like to thank our summer interns who helped us with audio transcription, podcast production, and social media marketing. It makes us at Palestinians Podcast hopeful for the future when we see young Palestinians with passion, knowledge, and drive. The work these interns did this summer will set the foundation for future episodes of Palestinians Podcast. 

Zein Nasser

Zein is a recent graduate from New York University, where her academic focus was on studying identity in the Palestinian diaspora, with a focus on the communities in Berlin and New York. Herself a Palestinian in diaspora, she understands and appreciates the importance of giving a voice to the Palestinian population, and allowing a platform upon which their stories can be shared. 

Rashad Saleh

Rashad is a rising senior at Oberlin College studying film, Middle East studies, and political science. Much of his artistic work has explored identity formation in the Palestinian diaspora. Serving as an audio intern for the Palestinians Podcast allows him to continue work in Palestinian art and generate a wider audience for Palestinian stories in the United States. Rashad hopes to further this effort through his professional goal of working in Palestinian film production.

Thank you Zein and Rashad for your efforts with Palestinians Podcast this summer!
