The storied generation of shabab (youth) who brought global attention to Palestine through their historically unparalleled activism during the first intifada are now adults – and nothing they fought for has come to pass. Dr. Brian K. Barber examines this situation by posing a series of questions about the first generation of Palestinians to live their entire lives under occupation.
Reverend Dr. Mitri Raheb discusses the situation of Palestinian youth in the Occupied Territories, following a screening of two films recently produced by students of the Dar al-Kalima University College of Bethlehem, Palestine.
This video shows Israeli soldiers in a military jeep deliberately running over a Palestinian youth at high speed on Friday and then attacking medics and journalists. Separately, on Saturday, Israeli occupation forces shot dead a Palestinian youth in the northern occupied West Bank.
Through educational events, humanitarian support, and cultural preservation, the Jerusalem Fund is helping build the movement for Palestinian liberation.
