Talking to ... John Aziz

When the cognitive dissonances of our present-day made themselves
felt in the aftermath of October 7th, the question of where and
how the abysmal hatred leading to this pogrom originated has
remained unanswered. This question drew our attention to John
Aziz, a British-Palestinian journalist who passionately writes
about the events in his father's homeland. His perspective is
particularly interesting because he clearly sees the weight of
this heritage as the dark shadow of a tragedy imposed on him, but
even more on his relatives remaining in Palestine. Because, as a
product of the English education system and, as a young musician,
he also feels part of the digital world. And it’s in this sense
that he personifies the global mission of a digital native who,
as a peace activist, wants to share his view of Islam with a
wider public.


John Aziz is a musician active in the peace movement and digital
economy. As a journalist, he has a Substack blog and has written
for Quillette, Foreign Policy and Prospect. His music can be
found on Soundcloud.
