Back to EpisodesBruce Shapiro's USA, future Palestinian leadership, and Sydney's old street photography
Published 6 months, 1 week ago
Description
From the USA, Bruce Shapiro on the latest deportation attempts against Kilmar Ábrego García, the FBI raid on John Bolton, and the twentieth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Then to Palestine, where the leader of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, is 89 and deeply unpopular. As Australia and other Western states move towards a recognition of a Palestinian state, what could that future Palestinian state look like? And: before the days of Instagram, personal cameras, and privacy laws, street photographers set themselves up around Sydney. The industry peaked between the 1930s-1950s, and has left the legacy of an incredible archive.
