What is it really Like Growing up in Palestine (West Bank)? l Yafa Jarrar

Hani Dajani sits down with Yafa Jarrar to talk about resilience as a Palestinian who lived under Israeli occupation and then moved to Canada.  Yafa Jarrar is a lawyer and human rights activist advocating for Palestinian Human Rights. She is also the daughter of Palestinian Leader Khalida Jarrar, who was a political prisoner for two years in an Israeli prison. The Israeli army arrested Yafa's mother, Khalida Jarrar in their home in Ramallah in 2019, eight months after she was released following 20 months in administrative detention without trial or change. Yafa is a prime example of advocacy and resilience, and shows that being strong also means being human. We also dive into a discussion on Indigenous rights and reconciling living in a colonial settle state.    We Discuss:   1:41 Moving to Canada 7:00 How is it like to live in Palestine?  8:30 Why is Israel an apartheid system?  9:52 Palestinian Trauma and & the Diaspora  13:26 What Surprised Yafa in Canada  17:17 How to Integrate in Canada 19:55 Law School  23:00 Education as part of the liberation of Palestine  25:24 Khalida Jarrar & how Israel can act with impunity  29:00 Reconciling living in a settler country and being indigenous   37:38 Activism & Mental Health 40:19 Experiencing Loss and Celebrating Suha Jarrar's Life  _____________________________________________________________________________ YALLA!
