Ahmed Alnaouq on Gaza and How the World Failed the Moral Litmus Test

Ahmed Alnaouq, a Palestinian activist and journalist based in the UK, is the co-founder of We Are Not Numbers, a platform that empowers young Palestinians to share their stories and experiences with the world through storytelling and journalism. 

In October 2023, Israel dropped a bomb on his family home, killing 21 of his closest relatives in the process, including his father, brothers and sisters. 

On today’s episode, we have a heartfelt conversation with Ahmed about his childhood, feeling survivor’s guilt after the death of his family, if the world passed the Gaza litmus test of morality and more.
