Honoring the lives and legacies of Palestinian academics whose voices have been silenced

I’m glad to see this website as a means of preserving the memory of the Palestinian academics who were murdered by Israel. I hope there will be other websites that do the same for journalists, healthcare workers, and others who have been murdered by the genocidal nation. All of Israel’s war crimes and crimes against humanity must be recorded and widely disseminated in multiple languages. We never forget or forgive.

Peace & Justice, MAA

Poetry in cover art excerpted from Mahmoud Darwish’s epic poem “Madīḥ al-ẓẓil al-‘ālī” (“In Praise of the High Shadow”):

Son of more than my father

How alone you were

The wheat is bitter

In the fields of others

And the water tastes of salt

The clouds are steel

And this star can scar

And you have to live and be alive

And in exchange for an olive

Have to give your skin

How alone you were
