I’m Susannah Nachenberg, I’m a student from the U.S. focusing on studying social change issues and social justice movements. It was an eye-opening and gratifying experience to be able to be a part of the the Sadaka Reut family/team, learning about social issues in Israeli society and issues surrounding the occupation. I feel very fortunate to have had this opportunity to work with Sadaka for six months and see how youth partnership movements can create visions of a binational, egalitarian society within Israel. Making this video was challenging but important as I became more aware of the issues around administrative detention that I hope to expose to others. I am now finishing up my BA at the University of California Santa Cruz and will be completing a thesis paper on the struggles and unique positionality of Palestinians within Israel (especially from mixed cities), and how they must compromise their identities from a young age in the Israeli education system, and thus how important alternative political education youth organizations like Sadaka Reut are crucial in Israeli society. The video I produced aims to explore and expose the use of administrative detention in Israel/Palestine. It is done through interviews with lawyers and detainees, as a window into understanding the illegality of this practice in the larger context of the occupation and international human rights laws.
