‘You Carry Your Home With You’: A Palestinian Poet’s Journey Out of Gaza
This is the most powerful short film I can ask people to watch. Not because it is about me and my family, but because mine is the story of thousands of Gazans who couldn’t share theirs.
Huge thanks to the genius producers who worked with me on this film: Mona El-Naggar, Neil Collier and Santiago García Muñoz.
Throughout her work on the film with me, Mona El-Naggar, has become a close friend and support in our journey in Cairo. She is one of the few brilliant journalists I ever met.
Please watch this 5-minute film. Share it. It has videos I never shared before with anyone.

When a 2,000-pound bomb detonates, it creates a blastwave that can harm people up to 3,000 feet away. Our Visual Investigation suggests Israel routinely dropped this bomb in the area south of Wadi Gaza - the place it had repeatedly told civilians in Gaza to move to for safety. nytimes.com/video/world/1000…
