About this listen

They Have Names is an audio project created and hosted by Mo Sati. Built from spoken-word storytelling, symbolic imagery, and sacred silence, the series guides listeners through the intimate textures of life—alleyways and living rooms, rooftops and schoolyards, clinics and classrooms—alongside artists, journalists, professors, and newlyweds. Each mini-series restores what the world keeps trying to flatten: names, childhoods, vocations, hopes, aspirations, traditions, and futures. It does not seek pity. It demands witness.

  • The Names
    Feb 28 2026

    From Beit Hanoon to Gaza City, from Beit Lahia to Al Maghazi, from Al Qarara to Rafah, in this episode we speak the names as an act of presence, insisting on the fullness of each life, from the very beginning to the very end, even when that life was cut short. We start with the origins of the names, birthplaces, birth dates, first breaths. We recall the smallest details that make someone real: tiny hands and feet, gurgles, beating hearts, life just beginning, utterly ordinary. Lives were taken before they saw daylight—before first words, before first steps—yet they remain here, held in memory, carried in breath those who remain.

    * The names you hear in this episode are real—drawn from publicly released lists of those killed In Gaza.

    They Have Names is an audio adaptation of the stage work created and hosted by Mo Sati. A collective storytelling and spoken-word project honoring the people of Gaza through voice and memory, the series speaks names back into the world—refusing to let lives become numbers. One name at a time. One story at a time.

    Coming soon.

    Music: Claude Palmer.
