Welcome back to season 13 of our podcast! 

In the last few years, our show has undergone a transformation. As we continue witnessing the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the dehumanization of entire groups in the media, we’ve questioned our role in travel media and felt powerless and hopeless to make any meaningful change.

This show is our antidote to that hopelessness.

At Going Places, we cultivate hope with stories of people and places that bring our shared humanity back into focus.

We introduce important projects happening halfway around the world that we think you should know about, and we interview people who inspire us, break stereotypes, and serve as ‘agents of light,’ in the words of one of our upcoming guests this season, Dr. Anu Taranath.

This season, you’ll hear from:

  • Tasneem Al Sultan, a renowned photographer and photojournalist from Saudi Arabia
  • Farah Cherif D’Ouezzan, a Moroccan academic who founded the Rabat-based Center for Cross-Cultural Learning
  • Dr. Anu Taranat, a University of Washington professor, lecturer on human rights, race, and equity, and author of Beyond Guilt Trips: Mindful Travel in an Unequal World
  • Hadar Cohen, an Arab Jewish scholar, mystic, and Palestinian rights advocate
  • And many more
💡
"The moment we're talking with and encountering each other, we are winning the war, because we did not let things manipulate us the way they want." – Farah Cherif D’Ouezzan
