Video: Celebrating the Great March of Return

The Electronic Intifada 7 May 2018

Not far from the protests on the Gaza boundary, families have been gathering every Friday since 30 March to participate in activities for the Great March of Return.

“People come here from all over Gaza,” said Majed Qadih, one of the attendees.

Brought together by the collective demand to end the siege and return to their homeland, Palestinians celebrate their heritage with traditional food, song and dance.

“Me and my children and my children’s children. We come here and we explain everything to them,” said Abedrabbo Abu Daqqa. “We tell them this is our land right before our eyes.”
