Uncovering Roots takes you on a compelling exploration of hidden histories, starting with the tale of Aurora Mardiganian. Host Maxim Saakyan brings to life the forgotten narrative of this Armenian Genocide survivor turned Hollywood sensation, whose story is as heartbreaking as it is inspiring. With a mix of personal accounts and expert commentary, this podcast gives voice to the voiceless, starting with a woman whose legacy outshines the lost film she once starred in. Future episodes promise to keep uncovering the untold, from Beirut’s queer movement to Lebanon’s gender-defying powerlifters.
