The Tea with Myriam Francois

The Psychosis of Whiteness, Black Power & the Global Struggle for Justice | Kehinde Andrews on The Tea with Myriam Francois.

Is the world trapped in a dangerous delusion? In this uncompromising conversation, Professor Kehinde Andrews breaks down the “psychosis of whiteness”, exposing how deep-seated myths about race sustain global inequality. From the failures of diversity schemes to the rise of far-right politics, from Trump’s return to power to the new wave of Black radical thought, he argues that true change won’t come from within the system—it demands revolution.

What does Black liberation look like in a world still shaped by empire? Can Pan-Africanism offer a real path forward? And is China a counterforce to Western dominance—or just another empire in disguise?

Join Myriam Francois for a fearless discussion that connects race, politics, and global power in ways few dare to.

Is the media hiding war crimes? Are journalists being silenced for exposing the truth? In this explosive, unfiltered conversation, Owen Jones reveals how Western media manipulates narratives, protects the powerful, and punishes those who dare to challenge it.

🔹 Owen Jones’ Explosive BBC Report – His 9000-word investigative piece exposed the systemic pro-Israel bias within the BBC, revealing how headlines were manipulated, Palestinian deaths were downplayed, and Israeli narratives were prioritized—sparking internal backlash and a media firestorm

🔹Gaza & the Media’s Moral Collapse – Why do war crimes in Ukraine get full coverage, while Palestinian lives are erased from the headlines? The shocking double standards in Western reporting​.

🔹 The 40 Beheaded Babies Lie & Western Propaganda – How one of the most shocking falsehoods spread by media and politicians was used to justify indiscriminate violence against Palestinians, while actual war crimes went unreported​.

🔹 Sexual Violence Allegations & Double Standards – Why have unverified claims against Hamas been amplified, while documented cases of Israeli soldiers committing rape and sexual violence against Palestinian detainees have been ignored? The role of the ICC and media complicity in covering up these crimes​

🔹 The Crackdown on Free Speech – Why are journalists being fired, blacklisted, or smeared for reporting on Gaza? From the BBC to MSNBC, the system is rigged against the truth​.

🔹 War Propaganda & Legal Consequences – Should media figures who helped justify war crimes face accountability? History says they should—from Nuremberg to Rwanda​.

With trust in mainstream media at an all-time low and governments tightening control over speech, this conversation reveals the uncomfortable truths they don’t want you to hear.

Muslims don’t matter… or at least, that’s the message from those in power. Islamophobia is at an all-time high, with a shocking 236% rise in hate incidents and violent riots targeting Muslims across the UK—but why weren’t they called race riots? And who’s really fueling the fire?

💥 NO working definition of Islamophobia—why?

💥 Grooming gangs & the false narrative—how Muslims became the scapegoat

💥 Has our government been hijacked by far-right extremists?

💥 Far-right Jewish extremism—why isn’t it being called out?

💥 The UK’s summer race riots—why won’t the media tell the truth?

With Trump back in power, Elon Musk boosting violent Islamophobes, and the Conservative Party shifting further right, the Islamophobia industry is bigger than ever. Who benefits from this hate?

🔴 Baroness Sayeeda Warsi—former cabinet minister and author of Muslims Don’t Matter—joins us to EXPOSE the networks, the lies, and the terrifying future we’re heading toward.

In the powerful finale of The Tea Season 1, Myriam Francois sits down with BAFTA and Emmy-winning Palestinian filmmaker Yousef Hammash to uncover the raw, unfiltered truth about Gaza during one of the darkest chapters in its history. As the world turns its eyes elsewhere, Yousef sheds light on the untold stories of survival, loss, and resilience under occupation, offering a perspective few have heard before.

Known for his evocative films One Day in Gaza and Gaza: Daring to Dream, and his award-winning Channel 4 report Inside the Gaza Siege, Yousef opens up about the emotional toll of documenting the genocide of his own people, what life is really like in Gaza, and the shocking realities global media often fails to cover.

In this gripping and emotional episode, we dive into:

👉 The heartbreaking realities of life under siege in Gaza, where 90% of the population has been displaced.

👉 The emotional weight of making films about the genocide of your own people.

👉 The truth behind the Saudi normalization deals and the price Palestinians are paying.

👉 Harrowing stories of Gaza’s orphans and displaced families struggling to survive.

👉 Why more than 190 Palestinian journalists have been killed—and what the world isn’t saying.

👉 The disconnect between the reality on the ground and what we see on our screens.

👉 Busting the biggest myths and misconceptions about Palestine and Israel.

Yousef doesn’t shy away from addressing hard truths, including the mental toll of witnessing endless violence, the courage of those still reporting under fire, and the hypocrisy of international narratives that ignore Palestinian suffering.

This episode is not just a discussion—it’s a call to wake up to the reality of Gaza, the voices silenced, and the stories untold.

🌍 As we close the season, we reflect not just on Gaza, but on the ongoing struggles for justice and dignity around the world. From Palestine to Congo, Sudan to Syria, we stand with all those fighting for freedom and peace.

Don’t miss this eye-opening conversation that will change how you see the crisis in Gaza. Click to watch, subscribe for more episodes, and join us on Patreon to support our mission of sharing stories that matter.

This week on The Tea, Myriam Francois dives into a candid conversation with Salma El-Wardany, feminist, powerhouse author, poet, and creator of her substack The Sunday Cervix. Together, they unpack the harrowing case of Gisèle Pelicot—a French grandmother who was drugged and sexually assaulted by at the very least 72 men, orchestrated by her husband, over a nine-year nightmare. As the trial reaches its conclusion, what does this shocking story reveal about rape culture and the global rollback of women’s rights?

From Salma’s deeply personal revelations about surviving rape to dissecting societal complicity in sexual violence, this episode confronts hard truths about the persistence of male violence in a post-#MeToo world. With pop culture phenomena like Love is Blind Habibi, "trad wives," and the Kardashians shaping gender norms, how do they influence the fight for equality?

Expect raw honesty, cultural critique, and hard-hitting discussions about:

• The Gisèle Pelicot case and its implications.
• Systemic failures in tackling sexual violence.
• Consent and grey areas
• Hook-up culture, pornography, and their impact on feminism.
• Beauty standards, hypersexualization, and capitalism's grip on female empowerment.
• Men’s role in the feminist movement and what lies ahead.

Salma and Myriam hold nothing back in this eye-opening episode that calls us to question, reflect, and act. 💥
