Summary
Village in the West Bank, home of the Tamimi family, where the opening scene of Invited to Witness — Solidarity Tourism across Occupied Palestine is set: a summer 2019 solidarity delegation heard Bassam Tamimi lecture on the porch of the family house and questioned Ahed Tamimi about her imprisonment (Invited to Witness — Solidarity Tourism across Occupied Palestine, PDF p.18-19).
Details
- Bassam Tamimi told the thirty delegates that what Palestinians needed was not tears — “We have enough tear gas,” he wryly joked — but solidarity (PDF p.18).
- Delegates asked Ahed Tamimi whether she could drive around to places and whether she passed checkpoints when she went to school, and whether she wanted to stay in Nabi Saleh for the rest of her life (PDF p.19).
