Voices of Palestine: Podcasts Amplifying Silenced Narratives
Amidst ongoing misinformation spearheaded by Western media, we’ve compiled a list of podcasts on Palestine to provide unfiltered perspectives and authentic stories from the region.
As the world silently witnesses the ongoing Israeli assault on Palestinians in Gaza and all throughout occupied Palestine that have taken the lives of thousands of civilians, crucial context and narratives continue to be omitted from mainstream media coverage - particularly Western media. In the void left by biased journalism and reporting, podcasts have undoubtedly become an important platform for elevating Palestinian voices and perspectives, and combatting propagandist myths.
In solidarity with the Palestinian people, and in response to the Palestinian voices and narratives being silenced all throughout the world, we’ve compiled a list of podcasts on Palestine to provide unfiltered perspectives and authentic stories from the region.
All the podcasts mentioned throughout this article are available to stream on Podcasts, Spotify, and all podcast streaming platforms.

Here are their voices, please listen.”
