Kumi Education: Jerusalem

The Israeli military occupied Jerusalem in 1967. Yet Israel started its efforts to claim Jerusalem as its alone years prior, regardless of the wishes of the United Nations and the claims of Palestinians, when, on January 23, 1950, the Knesset declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel.

To learn more about Jerusalem and its history, start with the two-part documentary from Al Jazeera, Jerusalem: A Rock and a Hard Place. It features both Sabeel's Omar Haramy, and a previous guest, Dr. Meir Margalit. You can watch part 1 and part 2 on YouTube. 

And then see our list of additional resources and our YouTube playlist on Jerusalem. 

Join us Tuesday as we discuss our plans for the coming months, provide updates on events in Palestine, and engage in activism for Palestine.
