The Muslim-American Backlash Against Biden
Episode 56
Sunday, 29 October, 2023
In this episode, Amber and Uzair talk about the ongoing political dynamics in Paksitan, where it seems like the PPP, PTI, and JUI-F are trying to come closer together given the PML-N’s closeness to the establishment. We also talked about the ongoing developments in the supreme court, where Justice Isa is trying to clean up house after Bandial’s retirement. We also have a special guest interview with Akbar Shahid Ahmed, who is HuffPost's senior foreign affairs reporter, based in Washington, D.C. He can be reached at akbar.ahmed@huffpost.com. A native Pakistani, Akbar has reported from across the Muslim-majority world, Europe and elsewhere. In 2023, he was chosen for the East-West Center's Korea-United States Journalists Exchange, and in 2022, he won a Boell Transatlantic Media Fellowship to spend the fall reporting in Poland and Lithuania. In 2019, Akbar became the first-ever Pakistani journalist to secure a press credential to report from Israel-Palestine, and was selected as part of the inaugural class of LGBTI fellows at the Atlantic Council. Akbar is doing some fantastic reporting on the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict, and his stories are must-reads.
