We've learned about Palestine's suffering. But do we know Palestine itself?

I often wonder how much the average person knows about Palestine beyond the horrors that have unfolded there over the past three years.

Who could name a Palestinian artist or cook Gazan cuisine from scratch. Who knows the words to a Palestinian nursery rhyme or who can recite the history of the keffiyeh from memory. I think it’s something most would struggle with, yet almost all of us would confidently be able to recount the atrocities committed there.
