Examining the relationships between race, colonialism, and movement-building in spaces where tourism and military occupation operate in tandem, Kelly argues that solidarity tourism in Palestine functions both as political strategy and emergent industry. She draws from fieldwork on solidarity tours in Palestine/Israel and interviews with guides, organizers, community members, and tourists, asking what happens when tourism is marketed as activism and when anticolonial work functions through tourism. Palestinian organizers, she demonstrates, have refashioned the conventions of tourism by extending invitations to tourists to witness Palestinian resistance and the effects of Israeli state practice on Palestinian land and lives. In so doing, Kelly shows how Palestinian guides and organizers wrest from Israeli control the capacity to invite and the permission to narrate both their oppression and their liberation."--Provided by publisher.TourismSocial aspectsPalestineTourismPalestineSolidarityPalestineVolunteer tourismPalestinePalestinian ArabsSocial conditionsTourismSocial aspectsTourismSolidarityVolunteer tourismPalestinian ArabsSocial conditions.306.4/819095694HIS019000bisacshKelly Jennifer Lynn1982-1367899NcDNcDBOOK9910729783403321Invited to witness3391994UNINA
