The 1917 Balfour Declaration, viewing “with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people,” was a colonial intervention which had the effect of gradually displacing indigenous inhabitants of Palestine from their ancestral homes and led to the conflict we see today. This photo exhibit, presented by the Interfaith Community for Palestinian Rights of Austin, shows Palestinians in the early 1900’s, a fertile and thriving society, and again in 1948 and in 2017.
