Transnational Palestine with Nadim Bawalsa

Almost 40,000 Palestinians relocated to Latin America in the late 19th century, from Bethlehem, Bei Jala and indeed Jerusalem. In this episode Nadim Bawalsa talks about his new book that looks at Palestinian migrants to Mexico and Chile and how they negotiated the changes occurring in Palestine, including the end of Ottoman rule and the beginning of British rule. Since 1925 Palestinians abroad were not allowed to request Palestinian citizenship, essentially stripping away their right of return well before 1948.Originally published on 12/21/2022Welcome to Jerusalem Unplugged Podcast.
