Oral History Project: Urgent Appeal

Posted on June 12, 2009

Currently we have just one person collecting Nakba oral histories, in Jordan and Syria; up to this point we have collected over 450+ interviews covering over 200 villages and cities, however, we are constrained by budget to expand this urgent program within Jordan, Syria, W. Bank and Gaza. We would like to double the number of interviews being collected , but do not have sufficient funding. We have received a private donation to get started in Gaza , which will provide the equipment and pay for the collection of interviews for the first two months, however, that is not sufficient.

We are now looking for 40 or 50 people who could commit to $10 or more per month for the collection of oral histories beyond those two months.

Click below to make your secure online donation via PayPal, and God bless you:

We only interview Palestinians who were aged 12 or older in 1948. Our time is therefore running out, as these people start to pass away. If we do not interview these Nakba survivors soon, their stories will be lost forever.
