Description
Naseej, meaning 'tapestry' in Arabic, is a collection of essays, short stories, poetry, interviews, and visual art that delves into the diverse forms of life, communities, histories, and continuities in Palestine. It endeavors to tell an aspect of the Palestinian story that is of utmost importance and has yet to be fully understood: the severing of Palestinians from vast and ancient regional histories. Palestine has always been a precious patchwork of languages, ethnicities, cultures, religions, and practices, which has been weaved into the fabric of an Arab and Islamic civilization that was itself a culmination of centuries of interchange and experimentation. Arriving at a moment of utter devastation - one of the most difficult in Palestinian history - this vibrant anthology celebrates the diversity of life in Palestine. From the trajectories of Romani groups to the formations of religious communities like Ahmadiyya Muslims in Haifa, to the political experience of Black Palestinians and much more, Naseej asks what kind of threads remain of this tapestry after some 150 years of modernity and colonialism.
