Abstract

Abstract This essay takes as its starting place the “present absentee” status of Palestinians in U.S. and Jewish discourse and engagement with Israel/Palestine. Ethnographic fieldwork in Jewish American communities demonstrates practices that reiterate a dynamic of Jewish belonging against the presence of Palestinian absence. The essay explores different initiatives to challenge this systemic exclusion of Palestinians, including public programs that amplify Palestinian voices and normalize hearing Palestinians as experts in their own lives and an experimental study group with Jewish American leaders that centers Palestinian perspectives in an effort to cultivate radical empathy. Insights gained in these initiatives point to the importance of articulating fuller visions of community and belonging in engagement with Israel/Palestine.

邀请归属:挑战将巴勒斯坦人作为缺席者的系统性排斥
摘要本文以巴勒斯坦人在美国和犹太人的话语以及与以色列/巴勒斯坦的接触中的“当前缺席者”地位为出发点。在美国犹太人社区的民族志实地考察表明,实践重申了犹太人归属的动态,反对巴勒斯坦人的缺席。本文探讨了挑战这种对巴勒斯坦人的系统性排斥的不同举措,包括扩大巴勒斯坦人声音的公共项目,使听力正常的巴勒斯坦人在自己的生活中成为专家,以及一个由犹太裔美国领导人组成的实验研究小组,该小组以巴勒斯坦人的观点为中心,努力培养激进的同理心。在这些倡议中获得的见解指出了在与以色列/巴勒斯坦接触时阐明更全面的社区愿景和归属感的重要性。
