On the 23rd of March of 2011, a terror attack occurred in Jerusalem on the 74-bus line. I was reminded of this event when I opened my old diary and randomly stopped at the page that mentioned it. When I continued reading, I noticed that the tone of my writing was so emotional, I could […]

Today is Yom HaShoah in Israel. The day we remember six million Jews who were murdered, but not before they were rounded up like cattle, chased, hunted, beaten, starved, gassed, shot into mass graves, exhausted to death by work, by marches, by cruelty, separated from their loved ones, from everything they knew and loved, stripped […]

In today’s Israeli reality, nationalism has become incompatible with child rights. Israel is a country ridden with conflicts and divisions between different groups, but what I feel is the most painful and problematic social-political rift is that between the ‘liberal’ left and the ‘conservative’ right. Each of these sides has picked a set of values […]

It’s 3 AM. We’re blinded by the fluorescent lights of Ben Gurion Airport’s Terminal 1. Our eyes want to close but we know we must keep them open to try and recognize the last participants to arrive before we can check-in. We met only once before, so that, combined with the early morning hours makes […]

“We wouldn’t have known the Women’s World Cup was happening if you hadn’t said anything.” I sat in front of him tight-lipped, giving a pitiful smile. Most likely, I also rolled my eyes. Although I’m passionate about all forms of football, I generally don’t force it into conversations, especially not women’s football, unless I see […]

Alternatively, Islamic-focused Moroccan women turn to feminist interpretations of the Quran to […]
