Alon Mizrahi: Interview with Israeli Arabs in Lod


Alon Mizrahi
Two years ago, the week before Nakba Day, I went to the Palestinian city of Lyd (renamed 'Lod' by Israel) to speak with two native activists about the very personal, familial, and ongoing meaning of the Nakba. 

My interviewees were wonderful and exceptionally eloquent and shared some amazing and heartbreaking details and memorabilia from the Nakba and life in Lyd before and after that defining moment in history. I did this piece for Social TV, a non-profit that has been shut down since then, and it was shot by the gifted photographer-activist Racheli Schor. I'm super proud of this piece, and I think it is quite educational.
