This Palestine Awareness week, join SAFE Umich for a momentous lecture on resisting dispossession with Mohammed El Kurd. Originally from Jerusalem in occupied Palestine, Mohammed El Kurd is a writer, poet, and activist. He is the co-founder of the #SaveSheikhJarrah movement and, in 2021, he was named one of TIME Magazine’s “100 most influential people in the world.” His lecture will cover dispossession practices across Palestine, focusing on Sheikh Jarrah, Masafer Yatta, the Naqab, Jaffa, and Silwan, as well as the various resistance to them. His lecture will be followed by an audience question and answer session.
