Is there a link between the colonization of Palestinian lands and the enclosing of Palestinian minds? The Palestinian Idea argues that it is precisely through film and media that hope can occasionally emerge amidst hopelessness, emancipation amidst oppression, freedom amidst apartheid. Greg Burris employs the work of Edward W. Said, Jacques Rancire, and Cedric J. Robinson in order to locate Palestinian utopia in the heart of the Zionist present.He analyzes the films of prominent directors Annemarie Jacir (Salt of This Sea, When I Saw You) and Hany AbuAssad (Paradise Now) to investigate the emergence and formation of Palestinian identity. Looking at Mais Darwazahs documentary My Love Awaits Me By the Sea, Burris considers the counterhistories that make up the Palestinian experiencestories and memories that have otherwise been obscured or denied. He also examines Palestinian (in)visibility in the global media landscape, and how issues of BlackPalestinian transnational solidarity are illustrated through social media, staged news spectacles, and hip hop music.
