********************************
Hanna Kawas is a Palestinian born in Bethlehem, Palestine. He has been
active in anti-imperialist struggles and support work for liberation
movements all over the world since he arrived in Canada in 1974. Hanna is
the chairperson of Canada Palestine Association, which was established in
1980, and is also the co-host of Voice of Palestine that first went on air
on September 1, 1987. Hanna says "The Canadian government refuses to
recognize my country of birth as Palestine, and since 1997 refuses to
issue me a Canadian passport with my birthplace as Bethlehem, Palestine."
This interview with Hanna was conducted as part of NOII’s “Inheriting
Resistance: A Community History Project” to document the untold stories of
people in our communities who have been involved in and who have shaped a
diversity of social justice struggles on unceded Coast Salish Territories
over the past 20-40 years. We are committed to honouring the legacy of
those who have struggled before us – and in many cases, who still continue
to struggle alongside us – for social, economic, political, and
environmental justice.
