An anguished cry for freedom

Caged birds in Palestine sing of freedom.

I wish I were a bird!

Oh, to be a bird and fly above the creeping march of viruses!

My journey as a woman

I choose to fight for my own identity, my own place in society.

The fight for freedom knows no limits

The Palestinian says, “Do not let the olive branch fall from my hand.”

A letter to God, from lockdown

In the end, there is no way to escape the demons.

The light at the end of the tunnel

I look ahead and I see a glimmer. Or do I?

Slap of the century

This old hajja keeps rebelling.

God is not a hairdesser

God is about heart, not hair or dress.

The captain returns

He tried to sail a boat out of the Gaza harbor. He ended up in prison.
