Singing Resistance: Eli Conley on Trans Identity, Anti-Zionist Jewish Practice & Music as Protest

Épisode 3

jeudi 9 avril 2026 • Durée 31:45

In this episode of The Thin Veil, Ezra sits down with Sacramento-based musician, educator, and organizer Eli Conley to explore the intersections of identity, music, and movement work.

Eli shares his journey from growing up in Richmond, Virginia, to coming out as trans, to becoming deeply involved in anti-racist organizing and community-based activism. The conversation traces how those experiences shaped his political framework, including his relationship to anti-Zionism and his path toward Jewish spiritual practice and community-building.

They discuss the role of music as both a personal and collective tool — from songwriting and teaching to leading song-based protest through Singing Resistance. Throughout, Eli reflects on what it means to build spaces where people feel less alone, more connected, and more capable of participating in meaningful change.

Episode Resources:

Singing Resistance – A growing, decentralized movement using collective singing as a form of protest, particularly in response to ICE and state violence.

Ahmed Sarsour on Poetry and Survival in Gaza

Épisode 6

mercredi 29 avril 2026 • Durée 28:19

Ahmed Sarsour is a poet and artist currently living in Gaza, trying to survive through the ongoing effects of genocide and raise money for his extended family and community through Project Sarsour.

After spending much of his life in Sudan as a telecommunications engineer and Palestinian exile, Ahmed fled violence there in 2023—only to return to Gaza just months before the genocide began. In this conversation, he shares what daily life looks like now—navigating grief, hunger, and uncertainty—and how he turned to poetry as a way to process, express, and ultimately survive.

We encourage you to support Project Sarsour and follow along with all of Ahmed's projects.

Prosthetics for Palestine

Resisting Erasure: Tarik Kazaleh on Diaspora Grief, Revolutionary Music and Generational Change

Épisode 8

mercredi 13 mai 2026 • Durée 49:55

In this episode of The Thin Veil, Ezra Lipp speaks with Palestinian artist, musician, producer, and organizer MC Tarik "Excentrik" Kazaleh about diaspora grief, sumud, burnout, and what solidarity asks of people in the West. Tarik reflects on his family’s roots in Palestine, the emotional toll of watching the genocide in Gaza from the diaspora, and why performative empathy is not enough. He also shares the story of co-founding Prosthetics for Palestine with his wife, a project focused on building long-term care infrastructure for Palestinian amputees.

The conversation moves through Tarik’s life in revolutionary music, from Arab Summit and Palestinian hip-hop to his new album Watani 77, a 77-minute improvised album on 77 years of Nakba, memory, culture, and resistance. Ezra and Tarik discuss Palestinian cultural continuity, the often forgotten history of Palestine’s Moroccan Quarter, October 7th, anti-Zionist Jewish responsibility, and Tarik’s complicated but deeply felt hope for a free Palestine — one rooted in liberation, memory, and resistance to erasure.
