have you read zionism from the standpoint of its victims by edward said? and the unofficial sequel zionism from the standpoint of its jewish victims by ella shohat?
said's work yes, not shohat, but i have prioritized reading arab-jewish writers and theorists
#for context my research primarily focuses on pre-1948 jewish culture; i am interested in the cause of the problem#bc i dont believe the problem can be solved in a structural way unless the causes are addressed and dealt with#otherwise- as with nazism- the problem will lie dormant for a while and then re-emerge in a new form and feel justified#because it will (falsely) appeal to the fact that its apparent instigating factors were not addressed sufficiently#i hope that makes sense; i am very tired#oh also by the problem i mean the problem of zionism's existence LSGJSDJFHGDFG sorry

the fact that in early October tumblrinas were going around saying "I'm side-eyeing anyone who's speaking in Hebrew rn" should tell you everything you need to know about what they think "Zionist" means
#atlas entry#and before you come at me no! I don't associate with Zionism! but if you have a problem with people speaking a language we've spoken for#3000 years then maybe you need to sit down and rethink some things#also guarantee some people were yelled at for speaking a “colonial language” when they were actually speaking Yiddish
