Gaza, a series from unsettled (2019):
In 2019, Unsettled released a four-part series about the Gaza Strip. We set out to dive into these questions: Why did thousands of people risk so much to take part in the Great March of Return? Why does a majority of the population identify as refugees, even many who were born in Gaza? How are Gazans innovating in order to survive?
POLITICIZED PAIN
When violence erupts in Israel-Palestine, talking in public about Palestinian suffering is often met automatically with an assertion of Israeli suffering — as if one somehow cancels out, or even justifies, the other. It feels like compassion has become a scarce commodity. How do we grieve publicly without negating the experience of the “other side"? This episode originally aired in 2021.
CREDITS
Unsettled is made by Emily Bell, Max Freedman, and Ilana Levinson, with support from Asaf Calderon.
