Asem Khalidi

Born in 1933 in the Old City where I interviewed and photographed him, near the Al Aqsa Mosque compound. Lived here only a short time—1933—before displaced to various areas, finallly setling in Shu'afat in East Jerusalem where he bought property and built his current home. Most tellingly, when I asked if he feels safe now, he unequivocally answered NO.
