Conflicted Community: Dalia Ziada – Liberal Activism in Egypt, from the Arab Spring to October 7th

This week for our Conflicted Community members, we have an
interview with the Egyptian political activist Dalia Ziada, whose
incredible personal story crosses so many of the major events in
the modern middle east, from the Arab Spring, to October 7th. Dalia
is an award-winning Egyptian writer and political analyst whose
work focuses on governance, geopolitics, and defense policy. In
Egypt, she co-founded the Liberal Democracy Institute in 2015, she
is the Executive Director of the Center for Middle East and Eastern
Mediterranean Studies and also serves as a board member of the
Foreign Affairs Committee of Egypt's National Council for Women.
She’s a frequent media commentator, advocating for women’s rights
and against female genital mutilation in the Muslim World, and she
is the author of multiple books, including “The Curious Case of the
Three-Legged Wolf - Egypt: Military, Islamism, and Liberal
Democracy”, on the Arab Spring and its fallout in Egypt. In a wide
ranging conversation, Thomas and Dalia discuss her story of liberal
activism in Egypt, teaching herself out of antisemitism, the Arab
Spring, October 7th, and more… To listen to the full episode,
