    About Palistory

    Palistory Mission

    Palistory, Inc. is committed to recapturing the narratives surrounding Palestinian identity, history, and lived experiences through the medium of filmmaking. By documenting and disseminating personal stories from Palestinians who have lived under occupation and within the diaspora, we aim to critically challenge dehumanizing tropes and reductive frameworks that have been utilized to justify systemic injustice. Our work seeks to promote a deeper understanding of Palestinian humanity and resilience, fostering dialogue that prioritizes dignity, equity, and justice.  Through the rigorous production of documentary or fictional narratives, both feature-length and episodic series, we endeavor to preserve these narratives for scholarly, educational, and advocacy purposes, ensuring they contribute meaningfully to the global discourse on human rights and self-determination.  
     

  • Why Stories

    Stories are compelling and personal. They add color to history by providing valuable insight and information that can’t be found in just facts and numbers. For this reason, Palestinians have long relied on the power of storytelling to keep their history and culture alive despite active suppression. History is best depicted through stories.

    This site intends to provide a place where Palestinians may tell their story, from their perspective. So far, the world has been told an othering story about Palestinian people that bears no resemblance to the lives and families of the people whose homeland the Abrahamic faiths all call the Holy Land. Consequently the world continues to deny the holocaust and genocide of Palestinians, at the hands of those who cover their theft with tropes about a land without a people for a people without a land. History is clear that Palestine has been people’d for millennia. This site seeks to tell the stories of these people.
