Haidar Eid

Decolonising the Palestinian Mind is not about the 2023 genocidal attack on Gaza. It is a sharp critique of the Oslo surrender, the Bantustans created by imperialism in the name of a two-state solution, and a recognition that the tokenisation of the Palestinian struggle and emancipation have become ordinary conduct on the part of organisations historically dedicated to the liberation of Palestine.

Haidar Eid builds on the work of Edward Said, who Palestinians treasure for his relentless truth-telling of their realities. Decolonising the Palestinian Mind calls for a consciousness change in a new period of unprecedented pressure on Palestinian culture, identity, and futures.

Decolonising the Palestinian Mind

Victoria Brittain

Decolonizing the Palestinian Mind is a sharp critique of the Oslo surrender, the Israeli apartheid system established in the name of a two-state solution, and the tokenization of Palestinian struggle and emancipation. It calls for a radical change in consciousness in a new period of unprecedented pressure on Palestinian culture, identity, and futures. Drawing on the works of Edward Said, Ghassan Kanafani, Paolo Freire, Rosa Luxemburg, and Antonio Gramsci, Haidar Eid provides an in-depth look at how alternative political programs and struggles can offer prospects for a just peace.
