Confronting Israeli-Palestinian history in the documentary Tantura
A new documentary from an Israeli director points to a mass, unmarked grave of Palestinians, killed in the village of Tantura in 1948. We talk to Alon Schwarz, director of Tantura; Hillel Cohen, a professor of Islamic and Middle Eastern studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and head of the university’s Cherrick Center for the Study of Zionism; and Yara Hawari, a Palestinian writer and senior analyst at Al-Shabaka, The Palestinian Policy Network, and host of the podcast Rethinking Palestine.
