Bearing witness in a time of genocide: Dr Bushra Othman

“Nothing could honestly ever prepare you.”

The third episode of 2 Pals & a Pod with Dr Bushra Othman is out now. Dr Othman is the first Palestinian-'Australian' woman doctor to go to Gaza, and recently returned from her third medical mission there.

On this episode, Dr Othman talks about starvation as a deliberate strategy to fracture communities, the gendered impact of genocidal violence, the responsibilities of medical professionals in a time of genocide, and how she used instant coffee packets to help a 13 year old boy with his physio sessions.
