Will this Palestinian matriarch get to keep her Jerusalem home?

Amal Sumarin has been fighting Jewish settlement and a discriminatory legal system for years. For +972’s Magazine’s podcast, I reported, produced and edited this piece that explores the Israeli legal system that allows settler groups to manipulate history and uproot Palestinian families from homes their ancestors built.

The Shepherd and the Settler

I produced and edited this 26-minute documentary for the BBC World Service about A Palestinian shepherd fighting for his livelihood under pressure from Israeli settlers in the West Bank.

The Great March

In the first episode of Gaza, a series from Unsettled, we hear about the Great March of Return from one of its organizers and two young participants. This mass demonstration was originally planned to last six weeks, but has continued to this day. How did it all begin, and who are the protestors that continue to risk their lives to participate?

Energy

This Unsettled episode features on Majd Mashharawi: a young engineer and entrepreneur living in the Gaza Strip who is harnessing Gaza’s most plentiful natural resource — sunlight — to bring power to her people.

Nakba Day

Every year, Palestinians remember their people’s expulsion, or what they refer to as the "Nakba," the Arabic word for catastrophe. In this episode, Palestinian filmmaker Ahmed Mansour talks about his childhood in a Gaza refugee camp, why the timing of the U.S. embassy move is so inflammatory, and how the Nakba continues to permeate Palestinian life.
