Podcast: Arab radio on the Oscars, Census and more
Radio host Ray Hanania talks with listeners in Detroit, Dearborn, Chicago and around the country on “Fight back” on the monthly radio show “Yalla! Fight Back” broadcast on the 2nd Friday over every month.
Listeners discuss the bias of the Academy Awards and the the hypocrisy of the Oscars, and criticize the failure of the U.S. Census to be inclusive.
Other topics include how Arabs can “fight back” (non-violently, of course) against racism in America and brutality by Israeli.
