Thank you so much for this piece, Lama. This was a wonderfully informative article, and it shows that the Palestinians and Palestinian culture are incredibly resilient. Despite decades of displacement, occupation, and hardship, their art, stories, and traditions continue to thrive. It’s a powerful reminder that culture is not just a reflection of identity, as it represents resistance, survival, and hope ♥️.
