Knowing the Nakba: The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine to Create the State of Israel (Methodist Federation for Social Action)

May 17, 2023 @ 1:00 pm 2:00 pm

The Palestinian Nakba (Catastrophe) of 1948 has been called the poisonous root of all that has plagued the Holy Land since that time, with a never-ending impact that pervades the Middle East and the entire world. We cannot hope to understand the present turmoil in the Holy Land – let alone achieve a just peace for all those who live there – without knowing where and how the conflict began: with the ethnic cleansing of indigenous people from their homeland. Join us for this unique educational and thought-provoking presentation, with moving recollections from living Nakba survivors, expert historical analysis, and riveting video clips.
