Abstract
CBC Middle East correspondent and Palestinian-Canadian Nahlah Ayed writes with insight and first-hand knowledge of the myriad ways in which the Arab people have fought against oppression and loss. Ayed was born to Palestinian refugee parents in Winnipeg, but spent some of her formative childhood years in a Palestinian refugee camp in Jordan. This shaped her thinking and her future work as a reporter covering the wars, crackdowns and uprisings across the region. A uniquely personal and moving account.
