Our Voice: Refugee Youth Magazine, Letters From Palestine

In its own unique way, OUR VOICE is a form of independent grassroots media. It is a platform from within Palestine through which young Palestinian refugees are speaking out to the world beyond the Wall and the other physical restraints which imprison and divide Palestinian people. Over the last two years, our project participants have written and photographed to help people understand the enforced shape that their lives have taken. They have described through this work many elements of their lives. In this issue, our young writers and photographers have turned their attention directly to the outside world and to specific individuals and collective groups who in some way have played, or do play, a role in Palestine’s story.
