The war highlighted as never before the dependence of Israeli society on foundations, businesses, and other funding organizations to meet the basic needs of the average Israeli citizen. Ten years ago this Third Sector would have focused on providing its resources in a way that supplemented the safety net and basic services provided by the national government. Increasing privatization, the outsourcing of more and more services, and continual budget cuts have created a void in the provision of basic services, and the Third Sector is now being forced to fill this void. This was never more evident that during the recent war, where it was the foundations together with the NGO's that responded immediately and effectively to the emergency needs of the population in the North, including both those who were evacuated from the area and those forced to live in bomb shelters for extended periods of time.

  • Memory Trace Fazal Sheikh
    MEMORY TRACE FAZAL SHEIKH 2 3 Front and back cover image: ‚ ‚ 31°50 41”N / 35°13 47”E Israeli side of the Separation Wall on the outskirts of Neve Yaakov and Beit Ḥanīna. Just beyond the wall lies the neighborhood of al-Ram, now severed from East Jerusalem. Inside front and inside back cover image: ‚ ‚ 31°49 10”N / 35°15 59”E Palestinian side of the Separation Wall on the outskirts of the Palestinian town of ʿAnata. The Israeli settlement of Pisgat Ze’ev lies beyond in East Jerusalem. This publication takes its point of departure from Fazal Sheikh’s Memory Trace, the first of his three-volume photographic proj- ect on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Published in the spring of 2015, The Erasure Trilogy is divided into three separate vol- umes—Memory Trace, Desert Bloom, and Independence/Nakba. The project seeks to explore the legacies of the Arab–Israeli War of 1948, which resulted in the dispossession and displacement of three quarters of the Palestinian population, in the establishment of the State of Israel, and in the reconfiguration of territorial borders across the region. Elements of these volumes have been exhibited at the Slought Foundation in Philadelphia, Storefront for Art and Architecture, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the Pace/MacGill Gallery in New York, and will now be presented at the Al-Ma’mal Foundation for Contemporary Art in East Jerusalem, and the Khalil Sakakini Cultural Center in Ramallah. In addition, historical documents and materials related to the history of Al-’Araqīb, a Bedouin village that has been destroyed and rebuilt more than one hundred times in the ongoing “battle over the Negev,” first presented at the Slought Foundation, will be shown at Al-Ma’mal.

I hope that they will have a chance to share some of these things with you on this Shabbat Hagadol, and in the week leading up to Seder night. As with everything, the more we prepare for the Seder by focusing on the meaning of what we do, the more meaningful the Pesach on the meaning of what we do, the more meaningful the Pesach experience will be for all of us. Most importantly, as Pesach focuses on the theme of questions, I hope that we will continue encouraging our children to ask, and succeed in engaging them in the conversation that continues from generation to generation. Shabbat Shalom and Chag Kasher V'sameach.
