This course draws on archival materials, Palestinian newspapers, photographs, advertisements, memoirs, and personal testimonies to explore everyday life in Palestine before, during, and after the Nakba. Through authentic texts and a wide range of historical and cultural sources, we will engage with questions of art, culture, society, labor, economics, and politics, while strengthening our Arabic skills. Together, we will examine how ordinary people lived, worked, created, and imagined their futures, and how these experiences were shaped by the profound transformations of the twentieth century. Along the way, we will also reflect on the role of archives themselves, asking: Whose stories are preserved and remembered, whose voices are marginalized or erased, and what can we learn by reading history through the traces people leave behind? *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 06/12 Reduced Price Start at - 1550 NIS - Until 03/01 Full Price Start at - 1700 NIS - Until first lesson of the course We have made a small change in our pricing structure and are now offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels when you buy a course.

What makes food political? How are the things we grow, cook, and eat connected to land, identity, community, and power relations? In this course, we will explore the politics of food through questions of culture, class, gender, nationalism, colonialism, and sovereignty over resources. Palestinian cuisine will serve as a central point of departure for examining the connections between food and place, memory and tradition, as well as the tensions surrounding belonging, appropriation, and cultural recognition. We will explore culinary traditions from different regions, examine the relationship between agriculture, nature, and community life, and ask how food preserves knowledge, tells stories, and reflects power relations. Through recipes, storytelling, discussions, and hands-on experiences of cooking and sharing meals, we will investigate how food can help us understand society and the world we live in. *** Early Bird Price Start at - 1400 NIS - Until 06/12 Reduced Price Start at - 1550 NIS - Until 03/01 Full Price Start at - 1700 NIS - Until first lesson of the course We have made a small change in our pricing structure and are now offering a sliding scale in order to give you the opportunity to donate 100 or 200 shekels when you buy a course.
