This week’s episode of The Gateway focuses on Palestinian stonework. An intrinsic part of Palestine’s economy and history, stone workers have helped to build every state in the Middle East, except their own. Our first guest is Andrew Ross, Professor of Social and Cultural Analysis at New York University and author of Stone Men: The Palestinians Who Built Israel, released this year in paperback. We discuss labor rights for Palestinian stone workers, aesthetics, and potential claims for land rights through stonework. Our second guests are Elias and Yousef Anastas, the brothers behind the celebrated architecture studio AAU ANASTAS. We discuss their work, decolonizing the history of architecture, and the place of stone in the future of Palestine’s landscape.

For Breezeblock #18, FA organiser René Boer talks to the founders of Radio Alhara, architects Elias and Yousef Anastas, on the one year anniversary of their radio project. It was launched in Bethlehem at the start of the global lockdown and by now has become a sonic public space reaching well beyond the confines of Palestine.
