Guardian series of videos by East Jerusalemites

June 14th, 2011 | Add a Comment

If, like me, you are disgusted by the minstrelry of Tom MacMaster pretending he was a queer Syrian woman here’s a good antidote. The Guardian has published a series of videos made by Palestinians and Israelis in  occupied East Jerusalem who were given cameras by the Israeli human rights group B’tselem and documented their lives.

H/t to +972 Magazine for bringing this too my attention. Five of the six videos below, the final one with Israeli activist Yonatan Mizrahi, is here.
