Remembering is Easy, Forgetting is Difficult: Memories of Palestinian Women
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article discusses Palestinian memories and exiles due to migration. Six Brazilian-Palestinian women exercise their right to narrate their experiences and record their individual memories. Connected by the Nakba, these memories are also collective. The goal is to present individual memories that dialogue with each other as well as their influence on these women's life trajectories. The accounts invite reflection on the impact of expulsion and exile due to Zionism and the effect of nostalgia as a tool for rooting. A biographical methodology was used to address identity processes and how individuals make sense of their experiences. As a result, we observed intergenerational processes marked by nostalgia and strongly influenced by Palestinian history and the separations that "cut through" it.
