What does it mean to be Palestinian? Yirmiyahu Danzig speaks with two Palestinian peacebuilders from East Jerusalem, Naveen Sanduka and Ziad Abu Hassan, about Palestinian identity, history, culture, and the complicated relationship with Israel. They explore the roots of Palestinian identity, the meaning of symbols like the kufiya and sumud, and whether Palestinian identity can exist beyond the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The conversation also asks what Israelis and Palestinians misunderstand about each other—and whether recognizing both peoples’ histories and identities can open a path toward coexistence.
Yirmiyahu Danzig (@that_semite) is known for confronting the conversations most people avoid, bringing strong convictions but also a rare willingness to engage people who see the world differently. Caribbean, Ashkenazi, and Palestinian-Jewish by descent, he has built an online following of millions by refusing the usual scripts and narratives, crossing traditionally hard-set ideological borders by speaking to everyone in the language of genuine, openhearted curiosity.
