Research title: Geographies of Life and Belonging in Palestine: the Practices of Retrieving the Incarcerated Dead
Research summary
My PhD research attends to the ways in which Palestinians experience and contest the politics and geographies of death and incarceration, and the spaces and sites of struggle that emerge from within these contestations. I am interested in carceral and abolition geographies, politics of place, storytelling and storymaking and resistances.
