What does it mean to be Palestinian? Yirmiyahu Danzig speaks with two Palestinian peacebuilders from East Jerusalem, Naveen Sanduka and Ziad Abu Hassan, about Palestinian identity, history, culture, and the complicated relationship with Israel. They explore the roots of Palestinian identity, the meaning of symbols like the kufiya and sumud, and whether Palestinian identity can exist beyond the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The conversation also asks what Israelis and Palestinians misunderstand about each other—and whether recognizing both peoples’ histories and identities can open a path toward coexistence.
