Today's guest, Amer Shomali, was appointed as the General Director of the Palestinian Museum on October 5, 2023. Two days later, we all know what happened.
Amer Shomali is a visual artist who directed one of the most innovative documentaries we have seen as of late. The Wanted 18 follows a number of "Israeli" cows gifted to the Palestinian town of Bayt Sahur.
Over the course of our conversation, we touch on the documentary I just mentioned, running a museum during a war, Amer’s upbring in Syria, the disillusionment he felt when he first saw Palestine as a teenager, Western romanticisation of Palestine and PLO children’s books.
