Editors Note: This is the first PalCast since Yousef’s sister, Fatima was killed in Gaza. Yousef talks about her at the beginning.
The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) started Palestinian refugee camps in Gaza in 1948. The AFSC’s educational work in Palestine goes back to the early 1900s when the first Quaker School, the Friends School, was established in Ramallah. This PalCast episode hosts Jennifer Bing, who is the National Director of the Palestine Activism Program, to talk about the AFSC’s work in Gaza now and before October 7, which included bringing Palestinian writers and speakers to the US. Listen to this episode hosted by Yousef Aljamal, Helena Cobban and Tony Groves to learn more.
