Between 1947-1949, during the "Nakba" (catastrophe/tragedy), an estimated 750,000 Palestinians were forced (by zionist militias and later the IDF) to flee their land, never to be allowed to return. The Nakba constitutes one of the most significant & violent ruptures in Palestinian history that has come to shape the very meaning of being Palestinian.
But the Nakba can also be understood as an ongoing process of subjugation, culminating in the genocide that has been unfolding since October 2023.
We will discuss how the Nakba has shaped the lives of Palestinians in Israel & in the diaspora, as well as what it means more broadly to be Palestinian in Germany & Israel today.

Stocks closed in the red Friday as investors weighed upbeat remarks from Russian President Vladimir Putin about diplomatic discussions with Ukraine against a weaker-than-expected print on U.S. consumer sentiment. Elsewhere, version 8.6 of Telegram integrates the in-app camera option into the gallery, while a new navigation bar gives quick access to photos, files, location sharing, and more. Friday’s performance was part of a larger shift. For the week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell 2%, 2.9%, and 3.5%, respectively. For Oleksandra Tsekhanovska, head of the Hybrid Warfare Analytical Group at the Kyiv-based Ukraine Crisis Media Center, the effects are both near- and far-reaching. The news also helped traders look past another report showing decades-high inflation and shake off some of the volatility from recent sessions. The Bureau of Labor Statistics' February Consumer Price Index (CPI) this week showed another surge in prices even before Russia escalated its attacks in Ukraine. The headline CPI — soaring 7.9% over last year — underscored the sticky inflationary pressures reverberating across the U.S. economy, with everything from groceries to rents and airline fares getting more expensive for everyday consumers.
