The lecture centres on alternative political tours of Jerusalem to counter the Zionist tourism industry’s efforts to promote their narratives on Jerusalem. Young Jerusalemites have taken to organising tours of Jerusalem in a popular initiative to reclaim the city and confront its Israelization.

The talk takes us on a vivid journey through which we imagine the ancient alleys of Jerusalem and the people that live there while hearing their suppressed stories.
