Beginning with a deceptively simple question - why are the Abraham Accords named after Abraham? – this audio series is a whirlwind tour of geopolitics, theology, pop culture, and anthropological theory that picks up on old Abe as both a universal symbol and the ancestor of two peoples: the Arabs and the Jews. As we’ll see, cousins can be pretty bad. Featuring:
Matan Kaminer is an anthropologist and a lecturer at Queen Mary University London. He is a member of Academia for Equality and a longtime activist in anti-militarist and migrant solidarity groups in Israel.
Ben Schuman-Stoler is a publisher based in Berlin and the founder of Kollo Media.
