Students Under Occupation Take a Stand (Right to Education Campaign)

Students Under Occupation Take a Stand
by the students of Birzeit and Al-Najah Universities

This book presents the photographs from the students at Birzeit University and Al-Najah University, who's aim was to document student life and the obstruction of Palestinian education under military occupation, through their personal lens. This compilation of expressive and profound photos make for a classic, keep-sake book.

Excerpt from the Introduction
"As well as capturing the major obstacles to pursuing an education in occupied Palestine -obstacles that include routine harassment and arrests of students by Israeli soldiers and the daily struggle to reach school and university under a regime of military checkpoints - the photographers also reflected on some of the less visual aspects of student life under occupation. The photographs in this book touch on themes as diverse as isolation, poverty, resistance, absent classmates, military barriers, student prisoners and determination."
