This was an informative read, and the dynamics between father and son were interesting. I learned about the ways in which Palestinians were systematically made stateless, and not only by Israel. I also learned a lot about myself and how I want to show up through Aziz’s hopeful and visionary art perspective on what better would look like and commitment to a path that was not about “either” side. It is so hard to be principled in that kind of scenario, and it seems that he was.
