Media Majlis Museum Podcast

Powered by afikra

Welcome to the Media Majlis Museum Podcast powered by afikra, a series where we explore the intersection of language, culture, and identity, inspired by the exhibition "The Limits of My Language Are the Limits of My World" at the Media Majlis Museum at Northwestern University in Qatar.

In season one, we dive into the Arabic language — a language spoken by over 400 million people but that’s constantly evolving under the pressures of globalization. Through engaging conversations with experts, artists, and cultural figures, we explore how Arabic unites and divides, empowers and limits, and how its complexity influences the cultural landscape of the Arab world and beyond.

Join us as we uncover the rich history, politics, and nuances of Arabic, revealing the stories behind its words, its impact on global cultures, and the challenges it faces today. Whether you're a native speaker or simply curious about the power of language, this podcast offers a unique perspective on the ongoing journey to preserve and celebrate one of the world's most influential languages.
