Believing in the power of the Palestinian story to change peoples' perceptions, Sabeel published this book to tell the story of Palestinians--from the catastrophe 1948 up till today--through photographs. This book is a warning "to all of us because of our propensity to oppress others. "The book offers an introduction to the Palestinian story without too many complex historical details, but is intended to be used as a visual introduction that will encourage further reading and research. Each photo speaks a part of the Palestinian tragedy that hits the deepest places. "In these photos words become flesh and the grassroots Palestinian people are revealed to us in their courage and dignity." "This is a powerful witness to 'speak truth to power.'"
