An urgent, one-off conversation between the Reverend Munther Isaac and Zena Agha about the situation in Palestine today – with a particular focus on Bethlehem and the West Bank.

She is the author of Objects from April and May (Hajar Press, April 2022). Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, Foreign Policy, The Nation, The Independent, Foreign Affairs, The Margins, NPR and El País.
