A new exhibit recounting personal experiences of Palestinian Canadians who fled or were forced from their homes in 1948 is coming to Winnipeg next year, but one Jewish organization is pulling out of its partnerships with the museum over concerns the programming might not reflect important context.
The Canadian Museum for Human Rights (CMHR) announced a series of upcoming exhibits this week, including “Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present,” which will open to visitors in June 2026.
“Kudos to the museum for having the courage to tell the story and not because they’re favouring the Palestinians or the Israelis," said Ramsey Zeid, president of the Canadian Palestinian Association of Manitoba.
“This is a human rights story that really needs to be shared.”
These people are so used to having a monopoly on the storytelling of this history that they are completely incapable of becoming aware of their own arrogance.
Yup. One has to have an overwhelming case of cognitive dissonance to stand against this.
Like, do Palestinians ask if they have been consulted before Jews or Israelis present a part of Israel’s history?
