SUMMARY:Screening of documentary film "Shalal (Looted): A Reel War"
DESCRIPTION:Madafeh: Screening of documentary film “Shalal (Looted): A Reel War\,” directed by Israeli filmmaker Karnit Mandel.\nPlease click here to register for this event. \n\nAbout the Film\nHistory is archived by the victors. While searching in an Israeli archive\, filmmaker Karnit Mandel stumbles across film reels from a long-lost Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) film archive. This never-before-seen footage was seized by Israel during the 1982 invasion of Lebanon\, and Mandel begins to wonder what is so dangerous in it that requires hiding. As the truth of these historical records unravel\, she comes into conflict with the bureaucracy of Israel’s military apparatus\, which denies the possession of additional footage. Will she be able to wrestle back any of this untold history\, or will the reels forever remain buried

SUMMARY:SWANA Style Series: Revival of the Jericho Thobe Ubb
DESCRIPTION:The SWANA Style Saturday Series is a lecture series focused on exploring the traditional dress of cultural communities living in SWANA (Southwest Asia & North Africa). The aim of this series is to bring awareness to styles that have generally been left out of the historical record\, however have great historical origination stories. Our cultural memory must preserve this knowledge for the next generation. \nJericho is the oldest continuously inhabited area in the world. Today\, it is the last Palestinian city before crossing the Allenby Bridge to Jordan. Geological and geographic factors have contributed to its long history of survival and an ideal place for settlement\, making it a source of envy and coveted possession for invaders who have seen Jericho as the key to controlling Palestine. In the oldest continuously inhabited place on earth\, what is the oldest traditional dress worn by the residents? And\, is it still being worn today? \nLearn the answers to these questions\, and more\, at the next installment of SWANA Style Series\, titled “Reviving The Jericho ‘Thobe Ubb’. Learn about Wafa’s most recent discovery of the Thobe Ubb at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City\, a treasure that has yet to be identified in the museum’s catalogue. \nPlease note that you are welcome to register for the lecture and watch the recording at a later time\, because it will be recorded and sent to all registrants within 24 hours of the live event. However\, the recording will be available for a limited time.

SUMMARY:Book Event: Nine Quarters of Jerusalem by Matthew Teller (hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:Please click here to register for this event. \n\nThis is a Hybrid Event\, meaning you can attend virtually via Zoom or\, in person\, at the Palestine Museum US\, in Woodbridge\, CT\, USA. You can register on Zoom and decide later how you want to attend.\nDoors open at 2:30; the program begins at 3:00 PM US EDT; 10:00 PM Palestine Time. \nAuthor Matthew Teller will be on site at the Paelstine Museum US to talk about the book and sign copies for buyers. \n\n\nAbout the Book\nThis unique\, absorbing biography of Jerusalem brings to light its overlooked histories and diverse contemporary voices. \nIn Jerusalem\, what you see and what is true are two different things. The Old City has never had “four quarters” as its maps proclaim. And beyond the crush and frenzy of its major religious sites\, many of its quarters are little known to visitors\, its people ignored and their stories untold. Nine Quarters of Jerusalem lets the communities of the Old City speak for themselves. Ranging from ancient past to political present\, it evokes the city’s depth and cultural diversity. \nMatthew Teller’s highly original “biography” features the Old City’s Palestinian and Jewish communities\, but also spotlights its Indian and African populations\, its Greek and Armenian and Syriac cultures\, its downtrodden Dom Gypsy families\, and its Sufi mystics. It discusses the sources of Jerusalem’s holiness and the ideas—often startlingly secular—that have shaped lives within its walls. It is an evocation of place through story\, led by the voices of Jerusalemites. \n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\nMatthew Teller\nPhoto Credit Andrew Shaylor \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Author\nMatthew Teller writes for the BBC\, The Guardian\, Times of London\, Financial Times\, and other global media. He has produced and presented documentaries for BBC Radio and has reported for the BBC’s From Our Own Correspondent program from around the Middle East and beyond. He is the author of several travel guides\, including the Rough Guide to Jordan. His most recent book is Quite Alone: Journalism from the Middle East 2008–2019.

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.

SUMMARY:Movie: Fangs (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Films available 12 a.m. ET Thursday\, Oct. 27 to 11:59 p.m. ET Monday\, Oct. 31\nArab Film Series Online: Fangs (Anyab)\nFree Online Stream | Suggested $5 Donation – Register \nA girl and her fiancé are on their way to a party on New Year’s Eve when their car has an accident\, and they find nowhere to go except a strange castle. They are met there by many vampires\, led by count Dracula\, who instantly falls in love with the girl and wants her for himself. The two lovers discover that Dracula is in Egypt in many forms (doctor\, taxi driver\, plumber\, etc.) not to suck people’s blood but to suck their money\, as a typical modern profiteer. Combining the genres of horror\, fantasy and musical\, this film will definitely leave a lasting impression! Directed by Mohammed Shebl. \n“A lost gem of Egyptian queer cinema\, Anyab is an unfaithful remake of the musical cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Although the story is apparently the same\, Shebl’s film is almost too homoerotic to handle. Weaved into its camp aesthetics\, horror genre tropes and 80s disco numbers\, Anyab provides a running commentary on the social situation in Egypt\, from youth unemployment to class struggle\, while intersecting sexual politics into the mix.” (Gasworks) \n100 Minutes / 1981 / Egypt / Horror\, Drama\, Camp / PG-13 / Arabic with English subtitles \nFor questions\, e-mail Dave Serio at dserio@accesscommunity.org.

SUMMARY:Reviving The Jericho ‘Thobe Ubb’
DESCRIPTION:Date/Time: October 22\, 2-3:30pm EST \nFormat: Virtual Event \nFee: Sliding Scale $10 or $20 \nThe SWANA Style Saturday Series is a lecture series focused on exploring the traditional dress of cultural communities living in SWANA (Southwest Asia & North Africa). The aim of this series is to bring awareness to styles that have generally been left out of the historical record\, however have great historical origination stories. Our cultural memory must preserve this knowledge for the next generation. \nJericho is the oldest continuously inhabited area in the world. Today\, it is the last Palestinian city before crossing the Allenby Bridge to Jordan. Geological and geographic factors have contributed to its long history of survival and an ideal place for settlement\, making it a source of envy and coveted possession for invaders who have seen Jericho as the key to controlling Palestine. In the oldest continuously inhabited place on earth\, what is the oldest traditional dress worn by the residents? And\, is it still being worn today? \nLearn the answers to these questions\, and more\, at the next installment of SWANA Style Series\, titled “Reviving The Jericho ‘Thobe Ubb’. Learn about Wafa’s most recent discovery of the Thobe Ubb at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City\, a treasure that has yet to be identified in the museum’s catalogue. \nPlease note that you are welcome to register for the lecture and watch the recording at a later time\, because it will be recorded and sent to all registrants within 24 hours of the live event. However\, the recording will be available for a limited time.
