The reality of life for the Palestinians is constantly changing and the current Intifada has made the experiences here even more dramatic. Therefore through this website we will do our best to show through humanistic, rather than just journalistic, writing the intricate picture that is our life.
Our mission is to help Palestinian activists organise, motivate and inform. We want to help people develop the art of story telling and debate. We want to be a catalyst for those stories to reach into other media and parts of the planet. We want to break down barriers and encourage the flow of information from people with both good and bad stories to tell, to the people we know are out there who want to hear them. We want to create a physical and virtual space that creates a sense of achievement and reflection but is vibrant and open enough to attract people who are interested in activism; while remaining practical and focussed to encourage all people in our audience to contribute.
We welcome and encourage all people to participate in discussions, post stories, pictures etc. We encourage well thought out pieces rather than submissions reflecting the anger and racism that we live with everyday.
