A multimedia project working to uplift internationalist dialogues on human rights, climate change, and visions of bold futures.

Born out of a desire to explore transformative ideas amidst global upheavals, The Fire These Times seeks answers two pressing questions: How can we build the new in the shell of the old? And how do we make it easier to imagine the end of capitalism than the end of the world?

Our unique editorial team are deeply committed to weaving together radical Lebanese, Palestinian, Syrian, Jewish, and Armenian perspectives from the periphery. Every week, listeners are invited to journey with Elia J. Ayoub, Daniel Voskoboynik, Dana El Kurd, Ayman Makarem, Leila Al-Shami, Karena Avedissian, Anna M, Aydฤฑn Yฤฑldฤฑz and our distinguished guests as they navigate a wide spectrum of topics.

Available on any podcast app, patreon and on this website.
