A Conversation on Wujood: The Grassroots Guide to Jerusalem

Apr 19, 2021
1 min read

A virtual talk on colonialist structures in tourism and their impact on Palestinians in Jerusalem, and Wujood, the first political tourist guidebook to Jerusalem. We were happy to welcome the host of BET news and the Coffee and Books Podcast, Marc Lamont Hill in conversation with Fayrouz Sharqawi, our Global Mobilization Coordinator. The discussion was accompanied by testimonials from former NYC congressional candidate, Andom Ghebreghiorgis, and Ramah Awad, a member of the Palestinian Youth Movement. They spoke about their experiences as visitors in Jerusalem.

This conversation offers an interesting perspective on Wujood and the idea of creating a grassroots guide to Jerusalem. I appreciated the focus on local knowledge and lived experiences, which can add important context to how a city is understood beyond conventional travel information. The discussion also shows how community-based resources can help document places, stories, and everyday experiences. For a quick break afterward, Quenq Vice City browser game is another simple option to play online.

Really interesting discussion that highlights a perspective on Jerusalem many people may not have considered, and I appreciated hearing the personal experiences shared by the speakers. On a lighter note, when I want to unwind after reading thought-provoking topics like this, I usually play Subway Surfers since it's a fun and relaxing way to spend some free time.
