In honor of Black History Month, CPS is pleased to share, “Archiving Black Palestinian Solidarity: Visions of Liberation 1968-2021.”

Archival video, 9:50 minutes

This video is a presentation of archival material on key moments of solidarity between Black American and Palestinian political movements from 1968 to 2021. It is an updated version of a work-in-progress started in 2018 by students and faculty at the Center for Palestine Studies, Studio X Amman at Columbia GSAPP, and the Columbia Global Center| Amman. Advised by Lila Abu-Lughod and Nora Akawi and edited by Rahaf Salahat, the video was prepared for an event and panel discussion on "Black-Palestinian Solidarity, 1968-2018" at Columbia University. It was included as a collateral event of Qalandia International IV, whose 2018 theme was Solidarity. For more info about the event "Black-Palestinian Solidarity, 1968-2018" click here.
