  10. Habibi Jad

    Thank you for having the courage to film one of the videos I have been waiting years to see. You probably have no idea how much this means to me.

  17. The Farhud is remembered as a wound

    Baghdad, June 1941. It is worth noting that Eshayek himself is from Baghdad, so this is not some distant historical reference for him. It comes from a city tied to his own roots.

  26. Asher and Sidon: The Hebrew Border Memory of a Phoenician City

    Sidon was not Judea, and it was not conquered by Asher. But in the Hebrew Bible, Sidon appears at the northern edge of Asher’s inheritance, where Israelite geography met the Phoenician coast. Asher’s world was one of oil, orchards, sea routes, borderlands, and unfinished conquest, making Sidon not a hidden Judean city, but a powerful Phoenician place remembered inside Hebrew biblical memory.

  28. Arab Muslims and the Protection of the Jews: A Forgotten History of Coexistence

    Jewish memory is not foreign to the Arab world. It belongs to it. For centuries, Jews and Muslims lived as neighbors, sometimes unequally, sometimes tensely, but often with deep cultural connection. Arabic was a Jewish language. Baghdad, Cairo, Fez, Córdoba, Damascus, Aleppo, Sidon, Beirut, and Jerusalem were all part of Jewish history. The protection of Jews by Arab and Muslim societies should not be romanticized, but it should be remembered. It proves that another relationship was possible. It proves that coexistence is not a Western invention. It existed in the Middle East, in North Africa, in al-Andalus, in Ottoman cities, and in Muslim homes that opened their doors to Jews in danger.
