Nakbah at 60
May 15, 2008 |
Has it really been only 60 years? Only 60 years of occupation, subjugation, humiliation, oppression? Why does it feel like a lifetime? Wait… 60 years IS a lifetime for many.
What can be said on this occasion that has not already been said?
Countless words have been spoken, but those who talk the talk are too cowardly to walk the walk.
I don’t want to keep counting every year. I want to stop counting next year. I remembered 58. And 59. I don’t want to commemorate 61.
This man’s journey is just one story, of millions. Millions who do not want their story forgotten. Who do not want to be ignored.
