Before the Nakba: Unearthing Settler Colonialism in Palestine


Listen Later

We journey into the past to explore the systematic Jewish settlement on Palestinian lands dating back to 1861, facilitated by Ottoman laws and influenced by British involvement, illustrating that the Nakba of 1948 was not an isolated or abrupt event.
