Art and Cultural Manifestations as Tools of Resistance in Colonized Palestine

Seminar Series | Led by Dr. Noura Kamal

Seminar Overview

 This seminar examined how, from the pre-Nakba era to the present, Palestinians have used artistic and cultural practices to resist erasure and assert their collective identity in the face of ongoing struggle under settler colonialism. Through four sessions, we explored a range of creative forms—such as photography, embroidery, poetry, music, film, and caricature—that have endured despite censorship and violence. Grounded in historical and political context, the seminar highlighted how cultural expression has remained a powerful and resilient form of resistance in the broader Palestinian struggle for justice and self-determination.
