Opinion: Palestinian Americans often suppress their narratives. Let's listen to their stories. [Opinion]
Armed with a camera, Abu Akleh gathered her people’s struggles, disjointed lives, losses and survival under decades of merciless violence. In ancestral villages and in refugee camps, humor, love and compassion were her gifts. A bullet entered her head through a gap between her helmet and bulletproof vest. Absurdly, Israel routinely “investigates” war crimes it commits, yet its leaders think it should investigate last month’s death of Abu Akleh.
How do Americans find unbiased news that may prompt them to question the diet of falsities we are fed, permitting us to overlook routine travesties of justice? Arab Americans comb through the lines of our media for semblances of truth. Palestinian Americans routinely suppress their narratives. Like Jewish Holocaust survivors before them who began to detail unvarnished truths in the 1970s and 1980s, Palestinians have taken many decades to claim their legacy of continued and unspeakable losses. One such unreported story concerns the bodies of Palestinians held by Israel.
