Independent Yemeni film and theatre director Amr Gamal returns to the podcast to share more about his work and love for Aden. He talks about the power of comedy, and says, “When you mix tragedy with comedy it’s easier to swallow.” Amr also shares how, as he’s taken his work out of the country, he’s learned that, “People everywhere can understand your art if it’s from your heart.” He speaks candidly about his devotion to the city of Aden and his commitment to do whatever he can to give Aden the justice she deserves. Amr urges Yemenis living abroad, “Go see the world and come back. We need Yemenis to come back and re-build this country. If we all leave, who will stay and who will give justice to Yemen?”

After nearly all the theaters, cinemas, and stages in Aden were either shut down or destroyed following Yemen’s civil war that ended in 1994, Amr Gamal went on to become an independent Yemeni film and theatre director. He wrote and directed 10 theatre productions between 2005 and 2014 and his play Maak Nazel became the first Yemeni production to be performed in Europe. In 2018, Amr produced his first feature film, 10 Days Before the Wedding. The film premiered in Aden during the summer of 2018 and was screened there for over eight months. The actors who agreed to work on the film, despite the risks and the low budget, told Amr, “It’s better to die out doing something than to die at home doing nothing.” Amr and his team exemplify the spirit of Yemeni resilience – they recognize they have only one life to live and they are fighting every day to make it count.

Alex Williams, host of Yemen News, joins Affan Syed’s podcast to continue bringing awareness about the Yemen crisis to a global audience. He describes the multiple disease outbreaks that Yemen has faced since the outbreak of the war and continues to celebrate Yemeni resilience. Alex says the real story of Yemen is the story of Yemenis who continue rising up day after day in the face of struggle. While wealthy countries continue fomenting hostility in one of the world’s poorest countries, and use it for their battleground, Alex and his host urge listeners to use any platform they can to turn a spotlight on stories of Yemeni overcomers.

Alex Williams, host of Yemen News, talks more about different factions taking advantage of the war in Yemen and asks us to consider where all the weapons being sold to the warring parties really end up. He also describes Yemen’s tribal society as well as the impact of the war on tribal values and continues the theme of Yemeni resilience, saying, “Yemenis can’t be defeated because they have nothing to lose.” Alex and his hosts urge listeners not to take a political side, but to take a “pro-life” stance by bringing up Yemen within their circles of influence and calling for urgent pressure to end the Yemen war.

Shroq Al Ramadi is the founder of Takween Culture Club, which exists to revive Hadhrami culture. Shroq speaks about the importance of these efforts during a time of political conflict and war that has threatened to strip Hadhrami society of its traditions and cultural identity. Her efforts to research and preserve Hadhrami culture include her graduation project, which is a plan for the Hadhrami House Museum for Art. Although life-saving aid is prioritized in a time of war, Shroq reminds us that reviving socio-cultural identity can also bring people together and play a role in the process of charting a path forward—a path to peace. Shroq tells the Yemeni youth, “I know that we are looking for hope, but we need to remember that we are the hope!”

Amir Al-Deen Abdulmalik Jahaf is the son of academics who graduated high school as a top student and was awarded a scholarship to study medicine in Egypt. However, when he returned to visit his family in Yemen on summer break, he ended up being detained without trial for two years and three months in hidden prisons. Amir shares his story of resilience with us, and how he managed to survive his harrowing ordeal and recover his well-being. He also shares with us about men who did not survive and were tortured to death before Amir’s own eyes. Their stories challenge us to join Amir in fighting for those who are still in hidden prisons, whose stories are unknown, until they are freed again to enjoy their basic human rights.

Yemeni writer Abobakr Alfaqeeh returns to help us understand the new controversial tax being imposed by the Houthi government as well as the Houthi government’s policies surrounding Covid-19. He talks about the suffering of ordinary Yemeni people living under governments without democratic legitimacy. In the absence of a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, Abobakr tells us how the solidarity of the Yemeni people has given him hope. Instead of waiting for the government to do its role, the Yemeni people are taking their own initiative to take care of each other and to take responsibility for the welfare of the communities they live in.

In this episode, he shares more about the intentional strategies that are being used by Yemen’s warring parties to target children and mobilize them on to the battlefield. He also highlights the factors that make children vulnerable to this recruitment and the importance of educational opportunities, which can decrease the vulnerability of children to recruitment by the warring parties.

Emad Al Akhali, the Yemeni rapper and hip-hop artist known as YemeKnight shares insights about hip hop culture in Yemen. He tells us how hip-hop culture came to Yemen and how Yemen influenced him as a poet and as a deep thinker. Emad tells us that Yemenis get a “hit of reality” early as they are confronted with issues of life and death at a young age, much like the culture that birthed hip hop. He also describes his methods of telling the Yemeni story through hip-hop by mixing English with Yemeni Arabic lyrics. His goal is to achieve international recognition, while having Yemenis feel, “He’s behind us. He’s telling our story.”

Nada Al Ahdal began her activism in 2013 when she was 10 years old by refusing to be a victim of under-age marriage. She fled home to avoid an arranged marriage at the age of 11 and has since established a foundation for the protection of children's rights. Nada has been nominated for the Nobel Prize for Children and works on a myriad of issues through her foundation, including the recruitment of child soldiers, underage marriage, and child labour. In this episode, Nada tells us that without awareness, Yemeni families may believe that they are actually protecting a girl by marrying her off at a young age. She explains how she works with her foundation to increase awareness that it is education that will protect a girl’s future, while underage marriage will destroy it.

Nasser Arrabyee, a veteran journalist, has spent the last 20 years telling the stories of Yemenis, including the Yemenis held by the United States in Guantánamo prison who have never been given due process or brought to trial. This includes the story of Adnan Farhan Abdul Latif, one Yemeni held at Guantanamo who actually was recommended for release by a US court, but never made it home to Yemen after he was found dead in his prison cell. In this episode, Nasser talks about how the Yemeni people remain imprisoned by the on-going war. He tells us that the current COVID-19 outbreak in Yemen doesn’t compare with the war crimes committed by the parties involved in Yemen’s conflict and brings us a sobering reminder about the forces fueling the largest humanitarian crisis in the world today.
