In this deeply reflective episode, Rabia and Sana explore the roots of hate, extremism, and misinformation with Zahed Amanullah who has spent 20 years researching, analyzing and coordinating efforts to combat hate and extremism. They dive into the roots of hate, extremism, and misinformation—and explore how each of us can play a role in building a more compassionate, connected society. Zahed shares powerful insights from his work addressing Islamophobia and promoting truth, empathy, and social healing.

We discuss how misinformation spreads and deepens division, and what we can actively do to stop it. From personal responsibility to practicing humility and open-mindedness, this episode challenges us to reflect on how we communicate, listen, and coexist.

We also explore the immigrant experience, the process of unlearning harmful beliefs, and how identity is shaped across generations. Zahed leaves us with a hopeful message about reclaiming our shared humanity and creating a culture that values understanding over fear.

If you're ready to move from reaction to reflection—and from division to dialogue—this conversation is for you.
