The Jewish Experience

In this episode, we sit down with lawyer and activist Abraham Hamra for an unfiltered conversation about identity, survival, and the political reality of being a Mizrahi Jew in the West. Abraham shares his powerful story of growing up in Damascus, where his family was part of a persecuted Jewish minority held as political hostages under the Syrian Assad regime. From his lived experiences in the Middle East to confronting modern campus activism and local government complacency in New York, Abraham doesn't hold back.
