From the country’s album
Towns woken by the train whistle, ports shipping Jaffa oranges to the world, villages harvesting wheat and pressing olives, schools, newspapers and theatres — Palestine as its people lived it before 1948.

The root of the story
The Nakba is not an event that ended in 1948.
It is a process that continues to this day.
The story is longer than a page… take it with you.
The full Nakba file in Our Palestine App: village by village, massacre by massacre, and a camp that still waits to return.
A record that does not close
125 documented massacres that mapped the expulsion. We gather them here by name, because forgetting is a second crime.
Return is a right that refuses to be forgotten
68 camps documented in the archive, home to refugees who still carry their villages’ names in their papers and their memory — and in keys to houses they have not returned to.

What our grandmothers stitched
A dress for every town and a stitch for every village, a coffee pot on the fire of welcome, olives pressed every autumn — a memory that is worn, cooked and sung, kept here so it is not forgotten.

06A visual archive — live documentation of an ongoing genocide
Gaza is no longer only a place-name. It is the name of a tragedy renewed every day: houses falling on their people, whole families struck from the civil record, and a childhood that grows — if it is allowed to grow — to the sound of bombardment.
A memory that cannot be folded away
They are not numbers in a passing headline. Names, faces, and stories that deserve to be told and kept — we remember them so memory is not erased.
“And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision.”Qur’an 3:169
