Ep. 03 - Akhaduha Mafroosheh with Comedian Amer Zahr

This is Episode 3 of The Palestine Pod. A Palestinian-American Lawyer & Jewish-American comedian break down the latest Palestine-related news with commentary & interviews every week. This week Amer Zahr joins the Palestine Pod and tells us how he uses comedy as a means of expression, advocacy for Palestinian rights, healing, and art. He shares with us some of his comedy icons and admits what he really thinks about white male comedians (sorry Michael). Commenting on the recent storming of the capitol and attempted coup of the US, Amer contemplates how “unbelievably awesome” whiteness is. Amer reflects on his viral video “Akhaduha Mafroosheh” (Arabic for "they took it fully furnished" referring to the Zionist takeover of Palestine as the theft of a fully furnished land, society, and culture) including scenes that did not make it into the final cut. Amer tells us what “Akhaduha Mafroosheh” meant to his family by describing the displacement of his mother’s family from Akka, Palestine: “Israel is a lot more than ethnic cleansing. It is ethnic replacement. They literally moved into our grandparents’ houses.” By relying on the findings of researchers Ronald Ranta and Yonatan Mendel, Lara dispels the common myth that dishes claimed by “Israeli cuisine” like hummus, falafel, and knafeh are the gifts of Mizrahi Jews coming to Israel from Yemen and Iraq. In fact, these foods were taken from the local indigenous Palestinians who were eating these foods on the land of Palestine for centuries upon centuries. As Amer says, “it’s not that hard. Go to a Israeli hummus place […] and then go to a Palestinian hummus place in Ramallah and […] they taste pretty much the same and guess what - the Ramallah guy has been there for 200 years and the Tel Aviv guy just got there. So you figure it out. They are copying our hummus […] the food of the land and of course they are.” Lara asks Amer to tell us some of his favorite Palestinian food memories from his “older than Israel” grandmother. A fierce bamya debate breaks out between Lara and Amer (thanks Michael). 00:00 Intro 04:26 What is the role of humor? 08:17 White comedians have the hardest job 12:37 Being white is amazing! 19:14 The key to great comedy 21:58 Amer's comedy journey 26:05 Arab mothers exaggerate 29:54 Palestinians are highly educated 31:38 Akhaduha Mafroosheh 41:59 The response to the Akhadhua Mafroosha video 48:51 Jim Crow 49:25 Jesus is Palestinian 54:24 Israel is a European colonial white supremacist project 1:01:50 Israeli cuisine has been taken from Palestinian cuisine 1:08:19 The first zionist settlers wanted to resemble the local Palestinian peasants 1:11:46 Bamya-gate 1:16:59 Amer Zahr's favorite Palestinian food Amer Zahr's viral video Akhaduha Mafroosheh :    • Palestine... Fully Furnished اخدوها مفروشة...   A Palestinian-American Lawyer & Jewish-American comedian break down the latest Palestine-related news with commentary & interviews every week.
