Adam and Ciara speak with Avshalom Matalon, an Israeli of Iraqi-Jewish and Lebanese-Jewish descent who also works within the Israeli anti-war bloc to bring an end to the war and the release of the hostages. In this episode, we discuss the nuances of his family’s experiences as Jews who once lived in the Middle East, as well as their expulsion and subsequent feelings towards their new country.
