West Bank, Palestinian territories - Camera distributionProgram CoordinatorsLeena Dallasheh
Daylight Magazine recently sent a number of disposable cameras to people living in Israel and Palestine. Leena Dallasheh's words are below:
My name is Leena Dallasheh; I’m a Palestinian citizen of Israel from a small village in the Galilee called Bou’na, beside Nazareth. I worked with the Alternative Information Center, a joint Palestinian and Israeli organization that strives for the end of the occupation. One of the major focuses of our struggle is the ‘security’ wall built by Israel in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The wall is annexing land and separating people from their families, jobs, schools, religious centers, and health services.
Seeing the wall as part of an everyday struggle does not help to normalize it- it only sharpens the feeling of injustice. While I personally do not live near the wall, it is frightening to think about living there, and inspiring to see people struggling to lead regular lives in its shadow.
I believe that the wall must and will fall and that the occupation will end. Israelis, Palestinians, and the international community have to work together because we all deserve to live together in peace.
