About Shamiram Media

Shamiram Media is an Assyrian media platform founded in 2017 and based in California that produces interviews, talk shows, and community coverage for a global Assyrian audience. Led by media personality and founder Maryam Shamalta, the outlet is best known for programs like "Yodaa d'Shamiram," a weekly show that reaches thousands of viewers around the world through social media and TV partners. Shamiram Media regularly features leaders, activists, artists, and professionals, with a strong focus on Assyrian women who are breaking new ground in their fields, using in-depth conversations to highlight their journeys and inspire others. Through collaborations with community organizations and coverage of cultural, social, and advocacy initiatives, the platform works to strengthen Assyrian identity, preserve language, and connect diaspora communities to one another. Its mission centers on using media as a tool for empowerment, particularly by encouraging Assyrian women and youth to see themselves as visible, capable, and essential contributors to the future of the Assyrian nation.
