What Happened to Syria?

06-11-2021 • 2 hrs 19 mins

There are too many amazing heroes among the Syrians who protested in 2011 to fit into a single episode. This is our second attempt at an ongoing effort to commemorate the heroes of the Syrian Revolution.   Ghiath Matar, Fadwa Soleiman, Bassel Shehadeh, a certain iconic goalkeeper-turned-singer from Homs, and other incredible individuals make appearances in this tribute to people whose bravery and sacrifices deserve to be remembered.   Thank you to @SubhiXCIV and @proud_damascene for the help you provided with this episode.   Sources: We Crossed a Bridge and It Trembled by Dr. Wendy Pearlman A Woman in the Crossfire: Diaries of the Syrian Revolution by Samar Yazbek Burning Country by Robin Yassin-Kassab “Syrian Christians Feel Pull From Both Sides In Civil War,” The Washington Times “The Days of Abd al-Basset” al-Jumhuriya.net “Abdel-Basset al-Sarout: Controversial Singer of Syria’s War,” Al-Jazeera Music Licensing Fragments by Nomyn https://soundcloud.com/nomyn Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0 Free Download / Stream: http://bit.ly/l-fragments Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/ndyyIhwojys "Emotional Sad Piano Music" by Mattia Cupelli https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JYHk_D5A44
