The CSLP is pleased to share that Laughter as Resistance—a vibrant and thought-provoking conversation co-sponsored by the CSLP with the Canadian Practitioners Network for the Prevention of Extremist Violence (CPN-PREV) and Concordia’s Indigenous Healing Knowledges Research Chair. and held earlier this year at Concordia University’s 4TH SPACE—is now available as a podcast.
Recorded live at 4TH SPACE, the session featured comedians Johnny El Hage, Saad Fennich, and Sandy El-Bitar in conversation with Zeina Ismail-Allouche. Together, they explored how humour can be a powerful tool to challenge dominant narratives, resist oppression, and affirm personal and cultural identities. The podcast captures the energy and insight of this unique event, where laughter becomes an act of resistance and healing.
