“What a Gazan should do during an Israeli airstrike.”

🎙️Author Mosab Abu Toha reads from his poem written in May 2021, offering haunting instructions for what a Gazan should do during an Israeli airstrike, from turning off the lights and sitting away from windows, to packing a child’s backpack with toys, ID cards, family photos, seeds, soil, and the memory of the last birthday.

🎙️In this clip of the Sumud Podcast, Mosab Abu Toha reflects on the Nakba of 1948 and asks what the world might have seen if Palestinians had social media then.

“Stopping a genocide shouldn’t be so complicated.”

In this clip of the Sumud Podcast, Ramsey Hanhan reflects on the Nakba, the Right of Return, and how watching Gaza unfold in real time changed his understanding of Palestinian history. He argues that the two-state solution has become a fraud and that the failure to stop genocide has exposed the collapse of international law.

78 years ago today, 750,000 Palestinians were expelled during the Nakba (Palestinian Catastrophe in 1948).

Despite UN resolution 194, over 7 million Palestinians remain displaced and unable to access, visit or return to Palestine, but the Nakba is not in the past. With the genocide in Gaza and the continued systemic oppression of the Palestinian people, the Nakba is ongoing.

This is not history repeating itself. It's the same crime... still unfolding. This is dedicated to the memory of those who were displaced, to those who were lost, and to the resistance that never stopped. We honor their struggle. We carry their story.
