  • Thank You

  • Urgently Needed, Nuanced Israel / Palestine Resource

    At a time when it’s almost impossible to have faith in the mainstream and social media alike, and when we couldn’t need a “third I/P narrative” more, it’s difficult to put into words just how critical a platform Unapologetic is. In particular, I recommend Unapologetic to my friends here in Australia who until October 7, 2023, really had not been tracking what goes on in the Middle East at all, and have found themselves searching for reliable I/P resources. And with the Israel / Palestine conflic... more

Disruptive Education
Q: Can you explain the occupation and why it matters?
Occupation is defined as military control over a territory, where the rights of the people living there are restricted. This occupation affects the daily lives of Palestinians and illustrates the broader issues of control and imbalance in the region.
