The war crimes and other atrocities being perpetrated by Israel in its project of colonialist occupation, land expropriation and ethnic cleansing cannot be allowed to be forgotten, least of all by those who continue to live in denial of what is happening.

How the Zionist colonial project is, in essence, the reduction of the individual to powerlessness. However, despite the ongoing genocide, Jabr also celebrates صمود (sumud) - an Arabic word difficult to translate which signifies steadfastness, resistance – of the Palestinian people. As part of our series \"Memory for Denial\" we present here an edited verison montage of the talk she gave in Milan (in English). Thanks a lot to Maria Nadotti &amp; Casa delle Donne Milano! Editing: Silvia Maglioni &amp; Graeme Thomson Dr. Samah Jabr is a leading Palestinian psychiatrist, psychotherapist, writer, and public intellectual from Jerusalem. One of the first female psychiatrists in Palestine, she has dedicated her life to serving Palestinians, with a focus on treating individuals who are suffering from trauma and trauma-related stress—particularly those relating to chronic political violence, displacement, and imprisonment. Author of several books, Jabr regularly gives lectures and teaches about mental health. She continues to work as a psychiatrist throughout Palestine today. In 2025 she published the collection of essays \"Radiance in Pain and Resilience: the global reverberation of Palestinian historical trauma\".
