Download or read book Strangers in the House written by Raja Shehadeh and published by Steerforth. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunningly honest memoir of growing up with a political father amid the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that “captures the rage and despair of lives stunted by occupation” (The Boston Globe) This “is not a political book,” Anthony Lewis writes in his foreword. “Yet in a hundred different ways it is political . . . Shehadeh shatters the stereotype many Americans have of Palestinians. Hath not a Palestinian senses, affections, passions?” This revealing memoir of a father-son relationship, the first of its kind by a Palestinian living in the occupied territories, is set against the backdrop of Middle East hostilities and more than thirty years of life under military occupation. Three years after his family was driven from the coastal city of Jaffa in 1948, Raja Shehadeh was born in the provincial town of Ramallah, in the rural hills of the West Bank. His early childhood was marked by his family’s sense of loss and impermanence, vividly evoked by the glittering lights “on the other side of the hill.” Growing up “in the shadow of home,” he was introduced early to political conflict. He witnessed the numerous arrests of his father, Aziz Shehadeh, who, in 1967, was the first Palestinian to advocate a peaceful, two-state solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He predicted that if peace were not achieved, what remained of the Palestinian homeland would be taken away, bit by bit, through Israeli settlement. Ostracized by his fellow Arabs and disillusioned by the failure of either side to recognize his prophetic vision, Aziz retreated from politics. He was murdered in 1985. Strangers in the House offers a moving description of the daily lives of those who have chosen to remain on their land. It is also the family drama of a difficult relationship between an idealistic son and his politically active father complicated by the arbitrary humiliation of the “occupier's law.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautiful but urgent clarion call for freedom, justice, and resistance in every pocket of the world, from occupied Palestine to gentrified Brooklyn” (Marc Lamont Hill, academic and activist). we are the boat / returning to dock / we are the footprints / on the northern trail / we are the iron / coloring the soil / we cannot / be erased —from “Refugee” Remi Kanazi’s poetry presents an unflinching look at the lives of Palestinians under occupation and as refugees scattered across the globe. He captures the Palestinian people’s stubborn refusal to be erased, gives voice to the ongoing struggle for liberation, and explores the meaning of international solidarity. In this latest collection, Kanazi expands his focus outside the sphere of Palestine and presents pieces examining racism in America, police brutality, US militarism at home and wars abroad, conflict voyeurism, Islamophobia, and a range of other issues. “His rhymes and rhythms, filled with sharp wit, irony and deep empathy, are a great joy to read even as they tackle some of the most urgent political struggles of our day.” —Ali Abunimah, author of The Battle for Justice in Palestine
Download or read book The Future of Palestine written by Tamar Haddad and published by . This book was released on 2021-03 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Palestine: How Discrimination Hinders Change was inspired by the shocking "honor killing" of the author's classmate and friend, Israa Ghrayeb. Her alleged crime? The simple act of going out, in broad daylight, with her fiancé and his sister-an act Ghrayeb's cousin maintained was unacceptable in a conservative society. While Ghrayeb's killers may be free, their manner of thinking is anything but. In The Future of Palestine, author Tamar Haddad seeks to open minds to diverse perspectives and to give voice to those who are commonly marginalized in conservative Palestinian society. In a world where prejudice is all too familiar, The Future of Palestine suggests that change can occur through: Engaging in theoretical readings such as post colonialism, Orientalism, psychoanalysis, nationalism, race theory, queer theory, feminism, and marxism Sharing stories of marginalized Palestinians Providing non-Palestinians with a background about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict This book is for those who reject discrimination against the marginalized and wish to make a difference. Coming together and discussing Palestinian history, identity, trauma, the notion of religion, women, race, sexual orientation, and class should change us all for the better.

Download or read book The Power of Dialogue between Israelis and Palestinians written by Nava Sonnenschein and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Power of Dialogue between Israelis and Palestinians, scholar and activist Nava Sonnenschein shares a collection of twenty-five powerful interviews she conducted with Palestinian and Jewish Israeli alumni of peacebuilding courses, a decade after their graduation. Participants with diverse personal and professional backgrounds completed a series of conflict transformation workshops using the model developed by the School for Peace at the world’s only intentional Jewish-Palestinian community, Neve Shalom-Wahat al-Salam (“Oasis of Peace” in Hebrew and Arabic). Critically, the interviews vividly demonstrate that peacebuilding does not end with the courses. Most of the graduates choose to work professionally in roles that contribute to peace-building. Sonnenschein shows the transformational potential of encounter between members of groups in conflict, sharing how ordinary Israelis and Palestinians coming together in an open and honest environment undergo life-changing experiences that provide concrete hope for a sustainable path to a peaceful shared existence as equals in Israel and Palestine.
Download or read book Children of Israel Children of Palestine written by Laurel Holliday and published by Gallery Books. This book was released on 1999-03-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israeli Jews and Palestinians appear side by side for the first time in this remarkable book to share powerful feelings and reflections on growing up in one of the world's longest and most dangerous conflicts. Here, thirty-six men and women, boys and girls, tell of their coming-of-age in a land of turmoil. From kibbutzim in Israel and the occupied territories to Palestinian refugee camps in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, Israeli Jews and Palestinians tell of tragedy and transcendence as they face their deepest fears and dream of a peaceful future. Listen to them as they recount stories of their brief and often violent youth. No matter what their ethnic identity, how much and how long they have suffered, these courageous autobiographers most often reveal a deep longing for peace. Perhaps their hopes and fears are best illustrated by a parable retold by eighteen-year-old Redrose (a pseudonym): "Two frogs got trapped in a jar of cream. They couldn't jump out of the liquid and they couldn't climb because the sides of the jar were slippery. One frog said, 'By dawn I'll be dead,' and went to sleep. The second frog swam all night long and in the morning found herself floating on a pat of butter."
Download or read book What s Next for Palestine written by Azmi Bishara and published by . This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the Trump-Netanyahu deal, Palestinian intellectual Azmi Bishara asks: how did we get here, and what is to be done? Former-US President Donald Trump's 'deal of the century' constitutes a dangerous turning point for the Palestinian cause and Arab region. What's Next For Palestine? provides a detailed overview of initiatives seeking to determine the fate of Palestinians, and explains how the latest deal is a fundamental shift in the US position to openly identifying with the agenda of the Israeli far-right. Dr Bishara situates the deal within regional developments, outlining the implications that geopolitical shifts have for the Palestinian cause. He identifies the lessons that must be learnt from mistakes so far, and discusses possible strategies for a renewed Palestinian liberation movement. Azmi Bishara provides an urgent and critical analysis of the deal, laying bare its many fallacies and absurdities. Bishara provides a historical overview of previous negotiations and agreements, with special focus on plans proposed by the US, that have sought to determine the fate of the Palestinians. In doing so, Bishara convincingly debunks the oft-repeated myth that the Arabs have 'never missed a chance to miss a chance', arguing instead that Israel has persistently rejected any solution to the conflict. Bishara reflects on the strategic mistakes made by the Palestinian liberation movement, drawing on lessons to be learnt, from the birth of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, to the defanged and politically compromised Palestinian Authority that has become a government without a state. Bishara identifies key hurdles faced by the movement today, including the fragmentation of the Palestinian people, and how these might be overcome with locally defined strategies that contribute towards an inclusive national liberation framework.
