Photo Switch
This:
has been switched with the photo to the right, taken at a protest against the Gaza siege and a display of solidarity that took place in Nablus on November 30th, 2008.
In a world where the western media begins every story related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with "Israel retaliates" and few people are shown much more beyond that, the importance of media showing Palestinian identity and pain is amplified by its rarity. This photo exhibition is dedicated to giving a voice to the Palestinian people - from children to jihadis - and reflecting on both the complicated circumstances and the inexcusable human cost of the conflict.
