SUMMARY:Eyewitness Palestine: Live from Lyd Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Join Eyewitness Palestine on Wednesday\, March 27th at 12PM ET for our Live from Lyd webinar\, featuring a special virtual delegation led by Tamer Nafar\, who will take us around Lyd on a custom tour of the city. Lyd\, like many Palestinian cities\, is an ancient city that’s been home to multiple civilizations over its 5\,000-year history. It was the site of one of the most grueling massacres of the Nakba and remains haunted by the injustices brought on to it. Today\, the community of Lyd–one of the few cities with an integrated Palestinian and Israeli Jewish population–is marred by addiction and gun violence. We’ll hear from Lyd residents about the resilience and struggles they face in the community.

SUMMARY:Online Film Salon Discussion: Films on "Hydropolitics"
DESCRIPTION:Register: Tinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024Watch the films at your convenience! \nJoin the panel at 12pm! \n\nwww.voicesfromtheholyland.org/salonrecordings  \n\nInvitation to an Online Film Salon\nSunday March 17\, 2024\n\nControlling the supply\, distribution\, and cost of water to an occupied people is apartheid in action. Israel\, through legal and illegal means\, maintains near-complete control over the region’s freshwater aquifers\, severely restricting Palestinians’ abilities to drill wells\, install pumps\, build water tanks\, or even collect rainwater. The average Israeli consumes over 3 times the water used by Palestinian on the water grid in the West Bank (9 times the water used by those off the grid). West Bank Palestinians pay 1/3 or more of their income to Israeli companies for drinking water. Meanwhile\, Gazans are now consuming less than 3 liters per day—hardly enough for survival. \nVFHL offers three short videos describing the “hydropolitics” and structural water apartheid in the Holy Land. Our panel discussion will explore designed inequalities in water distribution; the physical\, economic and regulatory controls; as well as the ecological problems of pollution and over-extraction \nWatch the videos for free at your convenience; Join the Q&A Discussion with: \nNancy Murray–Co-founder of Alliance for Water Justice in Palestine\nMazin Qumsiyeh–Director of the Palestine Institute for Biodiversity and Sustainability\nEyal Hareuveni–Author\, Parched: Israel’s Policy of Water Deprivation in the West Bank\nJeff Halper (Moderator) – Israeli-American anthropologist\, author\, lecturer\, and political activist; founder of Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD) \nYou must register to join the discussion & receive access to the film: Tinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024\nWatch the Trailer: Tinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024Trailer \nHow this will work: \n1 – Register here for the Voices from the Holy Land Online Film Salon: \nTinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024 \n2 – Once you register\, you will get a confirmation email from Zoom with a link to the meeting and a link with to watch the film.  (Save this confirmation letter as the meeting link is unique to your email and you must have this to participate.) \n3 – Watch the film at your convenience before the event.  Then join us with your thoughts and questions for our speakers at the Q&A Discussion on Sunday March 17\, 2024 at 3 pm ET/ 12 noon PT.   \nPlease share this announcement with your friends\, family\, and community.  Download the event flyer and post it to your social media. \nDownload the event flyer here.

SUMMARY:Art Under Occupation - Virtual Panel
DESCRIPTION:Eyewitness Palestine is back with the next Zoom event in our monthly series\, “Art Under Occupation\,” which features several globally-recognized Palestinian artists\, including Saleh Bakri\, Sliman Mansour\, Dareen Tatour\, Kher Fody\, & Yazid Sadi. Saleh Bakri is a Palestinian actor who has starred in films like “The Present” (2020) and “Salt of this Sea” (2008). Sliman Mansour is the painter responsible for the one of the most iconic Palestinian artworks\, “Camel of Hardships” and “Woman with Jerusalem.” Dareen Tatour is the internationally recognized poet who was jailed by Israel for one of her poems. While she was incarcerated\, she spoke out about abuse she’d experienced as a child\, and\, by doing so\, empowered Palestinian women from all over to tell their own stories. Kher Foudy is a multi-talented artist who paints pictures using Arabic calligraphy and is also the frontman of the iconic Palestinian band “Walaat\,” whose music of resistance showcase the resilience of the Palestinians of occupied Akka. Yazid Sadi\, embodying the Akkawi spirit\, balances being a talent manager and the owner of an art gallery & cafe in the Old City of Akka\, Nawaya Gallery and  We look forward to hearing from these artists about the beauty and struggle of their work under occupation and hope that you’ll join us in welcoming them on September 21st at 12pm Noon ET/9am PT. \nIt is our goal to raise as much funding as possible. However\, we do not want price to be a barrier to entry.

SUMMARY:Voices from the Holy Land: Online Film Salon
DESCRIPTION:Two documentary films\, Voices across the Divide and Born in Deir Yassin\, pull back the carefully constructed curtain of “a land without people for a people without a land.” Since 1948\, a monumental effort has been made to promote a romantic mythology of Israel’s creation and to hide the brutal violence. But firsthand accounts by both the oppressor and the oppressed\, the expeller and the exiled\, reveal the ongoing wounds. Nothing is resolved by dialogue alone\, yet nothing will be resolved without it. Any hope of coexistence begins when the historical truth is rediscovered and acknowledged. It begins here. \nWatch the film for free at your convenience; then join the Q&A Discussion with: \nAlice Rothchild:  Author\, filmmaker\, and Assistant Professor\, Harvard Medical School (Retd.)\nEmad Moussa:  Palestinian-British journalist\, researcher\, and human rights activist\nHuda Giddens: Palestinian American educator\, Nakba survivor\nAhlam Muhtaseb (moderator):  Author\, filmmaker\, and Professor of Media Studies at CSUSB \nYou must register to join the discussion & receive access to the film:  Tinyurl.com/VFHL-May2023\nWatch the Trailers: 1) vimeo.com/818747654             2) vimeo.com/818744242 \nHow this will work: \n1 – Register here for the Voices from the Holy Land Online Film Salon: \nTinyurl.com/VFHL-May2023 \n2 – Once you register\, you will get a confirmation email from Zoom with a link to the meeting and a link with to watch the film.  (Save this confirmation letter as the meeting link is unique to your email and you must have this to participate.) \n3 – Watch the film at your convenience before the event.  Then join us with your thoughts and questions for our speakers at the Q&A Discussion on Sunday May 21\, 2023 at 3 pm ET/ 12 noon PT.

SUMMARY:“When We Were Arabs – Memory\, Erasure and Cultural Connections” Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Diverse expressions of historical memory persist and gain meaning despite nationalist projects to minimize diversity in pursuit of an imaginary homogeneity that in truth exists practically nowhere in the world. The fact that such attempts at erasure are responsible not only for cultural amnesia\, but for denial of common cultural experiences that would foster acceptance instead of rejection. This workshop will place two works of historical memory into conversation. Coincidentally\, two authors representing two culturally related but geographically distant societies gave their books the same title: When We Were Arabs to invoke that claim of identity (Cuando Fuimos Arabe). They are Emilio González Ferrín\, University of Seville\, and journalist Massoud Hayoun based in Los Angeles. This conversation\, moderated by educator Dr. Rabiah Khalil\, will explore the persistence of memory and affirm the value of recognizing shared roots and accepting the richness of our diversity. \nThis program is sponsored by Georgetown University’s Center for Contemporary Arab Studies\, Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding\, the Arab American National Museum and Montgomery College Office of Advancement and Community Engagement \nThis program is made possible by a Title VI grant from the United States Department of Education\, which is funding a National Resource Center on the Middle East at Georgetown University\, and by support from the Center for Contemporary Arab Studies at Georgetown and the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding. \nFor more questions\, e-mail Dave Serio at DSerio@accesscommunity.org

SUMMARY:"Madafeh": Hanan Awad\, photographer\, essayist (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Event Occurs Every Sunday-Register Once; Attend All. \n\nThe program begins at 12 Noon US EDT; 7:00 PM Palestine Time.\nPlease join us for a virtual session of open discussion about Palestinian topics. \nPlease click here to register for this event. \nIn 1948\, the year of al-Nakba or “the catastrophe”\, over 750\,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homeland through militarized displacement resulting in the depopulation and destruction of over 400 Palestinian villages. Each village has a unique story regarding the specifics of how it was attacked and how its inhabitants were forcibly expelled. For the most part\, the villages were totally destroyed – leaving only a few that stand to this day. Ayn Hawd and Ayn Karem are these unique cases of villages escaping the brutal destruction that sought to erase the physical signs of the Palestinan presence throughout the region. While the houses and buildings of these two villages were left standing\, the actual Palestinian inhabitants were displaced and are forbidden to return. The stories of Ayn Karem and Ayn Hud are critical for understanding the situation in Palestine as one of settler-colonialism.
