SUMMARY:Jerusalem Story: Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:Jerusalem Story tells the story of a unique city through a new lens—that of the city’s large and diverse indigenous Palestinian community. \nThis community has deep historic roots in Jerusalem and holds the strongest attachment to and love for their city. Yet\, they have been subjected to unrelenting efforts to erase their presence in\, and potential claim to\, the city—past\, present\, and future—in the service of cementing Israel’s imperative of claiming sole sovereignty in perpetuity over a “united Jewish Jerusalem.” Against this ongoing effort to erase the Palestinian cultural and community history as well as severing connection to place\, Jerusalem Story is reasserting the Palestinian presence. \nSPEAKERS: \nKate Rouhana \nFounding Director\, Jerusalem Story \nKate Rouhana is a writer\, editor\, and researcher.She has lived and worked as a journalist and researcher in Jerusalem and elsewhere in Palestine several times throughout her life. She holds an MA in Middle Eastern Studies and a BA in International Relations\, both from Harvard University. \nAmina Abdulhaq \nResearcher/Writer\, Jerusalem Story \nAmina Abdulhaq is a human rights lawyer and a researcher. Her family has deep historic roots in Jerusalem. Her work focuses on Jerusalem\, women\, and gender. Amina is fully devoted to raising all oppressed people’s voices\, inclusively embracing diversities and uniqueness. \nArda Aghazarian \nWriter\, Jerusalem Story \nArda Aghazarian is a communications consultant with ample experience in creative and professional writing and has also worked in audiovisual production—including film and radio. Arda has delivered training\, public speaking\, and mentoring at key global events\, mostly on issues related to women and conflict\, identity\, language\, and narrative. \nNadim Bawalsa \nResearcher/Writer\, Jerusalem Story \nNadim Bawalsa is a historian of modern Palestine and author of Transnational Palestine: Migration and the Right of Return before 1948 (Stanford University Press\, 2022).. Bawalsa’s work has also appeared in the Jerusalem Quarterly\, NACLA Report on the Americas\, Al-Shabaka: The Palestinian Policy Network\, the Journal of Palestine Studies\, and in two edited volumes. Bawalsa earned a PhD in Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies from NYU in 2017\, and an MA in Arab Studies from Georgetown University in 2010. In addition to his work with Jerusalem Story\, Bawalsa is associate editor at the Journal of Palestine Studies.

SUMMARY:Dreams Rising Artist Talk: Gaza Artists Malak Al-Absy and Mohammed Qraiqe
DESCRIPTION:Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip as young as 14 years old have endured four major Israeli military offensives. They live under an Israeli military blockade which controls who goes where and when\, which goods can enter and exit Gaza\, and which patients can seek specialized health care abroad. And yet\, they are dreaming of a better future. \nThe Museum of the Palestinian People is pleased to introduce a new exhibition that invites visitors to imagine a better future for Palestinian children in Gaza. Working with a team of youth specialists\, curator Ahmed Mansour asked children to paint a vision of their future. \nThe exhibition was envisioned and created in memory of the 67 Palestinian children killed in the May 2021 Israeli military offensive on the Gaza Strip. The exhibition features artwork created by 11 child and youth artists in Gaza in collaboration with Sama Center for Art and Culture. \nThis event is a conversation with two of the young artists featured in the exhibition: 16-year-old Malak Al-Absy and 21-year-old Mohammed Qraiqe. The event will be moderated by Ahmed Mansour\, the curator of Dreams Rising and the director of programs at the Museum of the Palestinian people. \nMalak Al-Absy\, 16\, is a Palestinian artist from Gaza who was born in 2006\, the year before the Israeli blockade closed the Gaza Strip to the rest of the world. Malak has lived through four major Israeli military offensives in the 2008\, 2012\, 2014\, and 2021. She started to paint from a young age and has participated in several local art exhibits in Gaza City. Through art\, Malak tries to explore the idea of love in the war-torn Gaza. \nMohammed Qraiqe\, 21\, is from the Shujaiya neighborhood in Gaza City. His talent as an artist emerged when he was five years old. He was adopted by several art institutes in Gaza before he started making his way to international exhibits. Mohammed has toured Dubai\, Tunis\, Lebanon\, and Chicago with his art. He’s currently finishing his Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science at a university in Norway.

SUMMARY:Movie screening and discussion of Naila and the Uprising
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening and discussion of Naila and the Uprising\, a Just Vision documentary\, with the Deputy Director and a Producer.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nJoin Museum of the Palestinian People for a special film screening and discussion of Naila and the Uprising with Just Vision’s Deputy Director\, Emma Alpert and one of the film’s producers\, Rula Salameh. \nNaila and the Uprising is a documentary film about a nation-wide uprising that breaks out in the Occupied Palestinian Territories\, and the story of a young woman in Gaza who must make a choice between love\, family\, and freedom. Undaunted\, she embraces all three\, joining a clandestine network of women in a movement that forces the world to recognize the Palestinian right to self-determination for the first time. Naila and the Uprising chronicles the remarkable journey of Naila Ayesh and a fierce community of women at the frontlines\, whose stories weave through the most vibrant\, nonviolent mobilization in Palestinian history – the First Intifada in the late 1980s.

SUMMARY:The Good Old Days in Jaffa: Hasan Hammami\, Episode III
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the third episode in our conversation series with 87-year-old Nakba survivor\, Hasan Hammami.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nJoin Hasan Hammami\, an 87-year-old Nakba survivor from Jaffa\, Palestine as he shares about what life was like in Jaffa before 1948 – his life and experiences in Jaffa up to age 15\, when he and his family were forced out of their home and country on a Cargo Sailboat with nearly 3\,000 people packed like sardines. A personal review of his memories\, of family\, neighborhood\, City and Country\, relating what it was like to grow up in this pre-Biblical city and country. These were the Good Years. \nHasan will also share about his seven years as a stateless Palestinian refugee youth: navigating through the interrupted life of being a stateless Palestinian refugee as he adjusted to life and schooling in Lebanon\, to years of survival as a teenage worker in a Saudi Arabian Desert Labor camp\, earning a living as a Translator and Statistical Analyst to build what has turned out as a foundation of friends\, learning and associations for a life in the Diaspora. These were the Interrupted life years. \nThis event will be on Zoom and live streamed to our Facebook page.
