520 _aThe genocide of the people of Palestine is still ongoing. Despite a plethora of video evidence and testimonies from Palestine itself, the world remains deaf to the cries of Palestinians. Locating the sociality of sound and the act of political listening in the case of the ongoing genocide, it is argued that listening, in the truest sense, is a political act that shapes our experience of the social. When we close ourselves to the sounds of certain people, ideas, movements, etc, we create for ourselves a “socially induced hearing impairment,” which is crucial to the way we experience and perceive the social around us.- Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2024/42/commentary/sound-palestine.html
