The Image That Will Not Go Away: Palestinian Visual Resistance
The Image That Will Not Go Away: Palestinian Visual Resistance is a public event examining Palestinian self-representation in a Western cultural ecosystem complicit with the genocide in Gaza.
The Image That Will Not Go Away is introduced by DEMO and DARNA with a presentation examining militant Palestinian cinema, from the Palestine Film Unit to the cinematic practices of Kamal Aljafari and Oraib Toukan, followed by an open assembly bringing together organisations advocating for Palestinians’ right to self-determination. The assembly focuses on two critical questions: What does the complicity of the Western cultural system reveal about its structures and politics? How can we position ourselves within this system to envision alternative configurations? The aim is to address these challenges and share collective strategies in alignment with the struggle for the liberation of Palestine.
