On Our Way Home-15

Rowaida Al-Azzeh, fifteen year old daughter of Ayed and grand daughter of Rowaid Al-Azzeh (appearing in my photo set number 5), tells me about her family's expulsion history from the village of Beit Jibreen, and her struggles for the Palestinian right of return. Families of refugees keep their Nakba stories alive thru multiple generations, fueling activism. The family lives in the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem, Occupied West Bank.
