I had the exciting opportunity to sit down with Professor Kevin Jones from the University of Georgia’s Middle Eastern Studies department to dive deep into his fascinating article, “Unmaking the Middle Eastern Working Classes.” In our conversation, we explore the untold stories behind the rise and fall of the working classes across the Middle East, and how history continues to shape the region today. If you’re curious about labor movements, power struggles, and how it all connects to the present, this interview is a must-watch!
