It also won’t seem to go away. “Practically the <em>only</em> ethnic group about whom in the west racial slurs are tolerated, even encouraged, is the Arabs,” Said wrote in 1979.

Curtailment of their speech is another. “Reading Edward Said after October 7 is filled with a certain kind of frustration,” said Timothy Brennan, the author of Places of Mind, a recent biography of Edward Said. “Frustration that he’s not actually here to respond to the very obvious censorship that is afoot in all of the major dailies in the United States. Said could have broken through and found a hearing, at a moment when so many more people around the world are seeing for the first time what the Zionist project really is in practice.”</p><hr class="dcr-z9ge1j"/><p class="dcr-1eu361v"><span style="color:var(--drop-cap);font-weight:500;" class="dcr-15rw6c2">O</span>ne reason people have always turned to Said is his ability to articulate a moral position with a sophisticated historical sensibility. Said <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1999/01/10/magazine/the-one-state-solution.html" data-link-name="in body link">described</a> the Palestinian people as “the victims of the victims”, showing how Palestinians have become inexorably part of Europe’s Jewish history, even if Palestinian “life, culture, and politics have their own dynamic and ultimately their own authenticity”. Such a move was typical of his thinking, where connection was ultimately more important than division. Said had a way of forging alliances through his political magnetism and intimate charm, a force that pulled many in (the novelist Ahdaf Soueif once <a href="https://www.thenation.com/article/culture/edward-said-in-palestine/" data-link-name="in body link">described</a> herself as “one of Edward’s 3,000 close friends”).</p><aside data-spacefinder-role="inline" class="dcr-nyoej5"><svg viewBox="0 0 22 14" style="fill:var(--pullquote-icon);" class="dcr-scql1j"><path d="M5.255 0h4.75c-.572 4.53-1.077 8.972-1.297 13.941H0C.792 9.104 2.44 4.53 5.255 0Zm11.061 0H21c-.506 4.53-1.077 8.972-1.297 13.941h-8.686c.902-4.837 2.485-9.411 5.3-13.941Z"></path></svg><blockquote class="dcr-zzndwp">What Said wrote 35 years ago can sound like it was written yesterday</blockquote></aside><p class="dcr-1eu361v">People listened to Said not only for his experience but also because he, unlike Netanyahu, was willing to speak to everyone, including Israeli Jews. As Najla Said, the playwright, actor and daughter of Edward Said, explained: “My father always acknowledged Jewish suffering and advocated for a way [for Palestinians and Israelis] to live together with equal rights while still being firm in his criticism of <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/israel" data-link-name="in body link" data-component="auto-linked-tag">Israel</a>.”</p><p class="dcr-1eu361v">Said did more than acknowledge Jewish suffering, however. He also understood the damage its misuse could bring. “I do … understand as profoundly as I can, the fear felt by most Jews that Israel’s security is a genuine protection against future genocidal attempts on the Jewish people,” Said explains in The Question of Palestine, published in 1979. “But … there can be no way of satisfactorily conducting a life whose main concern is to prevent the past from recurring. For Zionism, the Palestinians have now become the equivalent of a past experience reincarnated in the form of a present threat. The result is that the Palestinians’ future as a people is mortgaged to that fear, which is a disaster for them and for Jews.”</p><figure id="a3ad6820-e9be-4f5a-b579-8c491514335b"

Photograph: Mohammed Saber/EPA</figcaption></figure><p class="dcr-1eu361v">It all makes him sound very contemporary, as does the way that Said connected the Palestinian national movement to other anticolonial struggles across the world. “Every single state or movement in the formerly colonized territories of Africa and Asia today identifies with, fully supports, and understands the Palestinian struggle,” he wrote in The Question of Palestine. “In many instances, there is an unmistakable coincidence between the experiences of Arab Palestinians at the hands of Zionism and the experiences of those black, yellow, and brown people who were described as inferior and subhuman by nineteenth-century imperialists.”</p><p class="dcr-1eu361v">Younger readers especially continue to gravitate to this global, antiracist message. “Said’s analysis of the west, particularly its approach to the east as an exercise of power and control, is alive in a lot of the content I see on my FYP [For You Page on TikTok] these days,” Lim, of the Pigeon Post, explained. “More and more young people are questioning America, the west and our assumptions,” they said. “Younger generations are critical of western media bias, such as that of the New York Times. There’s a hunger for narratives that come directly from Palestinians themselves, such as Said.”</p><p class="dcr-1eu361v">Lim joked that Said “probably would have been popular on TikTok – just imagine a page that’s half analysis, half piano content. Or maybe talking while he played piano. People would eat that up.” Brennan too believed Said would be “tickled by the attention” he’s now receiving on social media and that Said was always interested in multimedia storytelling, citing Said’s book-length photo essay <a href="https://cup.columbia.edu/book/after-the-last-sky/9780231114493" data-link-name="in body link">After the Last Sky</a> as an example.</p><p class="dcr-1eu361v">But what if the reason for Said’s seemingly timeless appeal has less to do with his own talents and moral courage and more to do with the persistent denial of the Palestinian quest for freedom? What Said wrote 35 years ago can sound like it was written yesterday, such as this excerpt from <a href="https://jewishcurrents.org/an-open-letter-to-american-jewish-intellectuals" data-link-name="in body link">An Open Letter to American-Jewish Intellectuals</a>, composed in 1989: “I cannot understand how raw, naked evidence can be overridden by American intellectuals just because the ‘security’ of Israel demands it,” Said wrote.</p><figure id="ff161bcd-f47e-47db-8422-cac17e284589" data-spacefinder-role="supporting" data-spacefinder-type="model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.ImageBlockElement" class=" dcr-a2pvoh"><div id="img-6" class="dcr-1t8m8f2"><picture class="dcr-evn1e9"><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=380&dpr=2&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 1300px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25), (min-width: 1300px) and (min-resolution: 120dpi)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=380&dpr=1&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 1300px)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=300&dpr=2&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 980px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25), (min-width: 980px) and (min-resolution: 120dpi)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=300&dpr=1&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 980px)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=620&dpr=2&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 660px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25), (min-width: 660px) and (min-resolution: 120dpi)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=620&dpr=1&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 660px)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=605&dpr=2&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 480px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25), (min-width: 480px) and (min-resolution: 120dpi)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=605&dpr=1&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 480px)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=445&dpr=2&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 320px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25), (min-width: 320px) and (min-resolution: 120dpi)"/><source srcSet="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=445&dpr=1&s=none&crop=none" media="(min-width: 320px)"/><img alt="portrait of Said’s face, partially lit" src="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/836be4b7f4f49bdf65c1aa9345165d0f4fd66ba0/0_0_1792_2660/master/1792.jpg?width=445&dpr=1&s=none&crop=none" width="445" height="660.546875" loading="lazy" class="dcr-evn1e9"/></picture><a href="#img-6" data-ignore="global-link-styling" aria-hidden="true" tabIndex="-1" class="open-lightbox dcr-13fd1ms"><button data-element-id="ff161bcd-f47e-47db-8422-cac17e284589" type="button" aria-haspopup="dialog" class="open-lightbox dcr-1sv232j"><svg viewBox="-3 -3 30 30" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" aria-hidden="true"><path fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" d="M23 8.75V1.5l-.5-.5h-7.25v1.25l4.5.6L14 8.575 15.4 10l5.75-5.725.6 4.475zm-22 6.5v7.25l.475.5h7.25v-1.25l-4.475-.6 5.725-5.775L8.6 14l-5.775 5.725-.575-4.475z"></path></svg><span class="dcr-194i6pr">View image in fullscreen</span></button></a></div><figcaption data-spacefinder-role="inline" class="dcr-1pvqcrw"><span class="dcr-1inf02i"><svg width="18" height="13" viewBox="0 0 18 13"><path d="M18 3.5v8l-1.5 1.5h-15l-1.5-1.5v-8l1.5-1.5h3.5l2-2h4l2 2h3.5l1.5 1.5zm-9 7.5c1.9 0 3.5-1.6 3.5-3.5s-1.6-3.5-3.5-3.5-3.5 1.6-3.5 3.5 1.6 3.5 3.5 3.5z"></path></svg></span><span class="dcr-1qvd3m6">‘I cannot understand how raw, naked evidence can be overridden by American intellectuals just because the “security” of Israel demands it,’ Said wrote.</span> Photograph: Francis Tsang/Cover/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p class="dcr-1eu361v">“But it is overridden or hidden no matter how overpoweringly cruel, no matter how inhuman and barbaric, no matter how loudly Israel proclaims what it is doing. To bomb a hospital; to use napalm against civilians; to require Palestinian men and boys to crawl, or bark, or scream ‘Arafat is a whore’s son’; to break the arms and legs of children; to confine people in desert detention camps without adequate space, sanitation, water or legal charge; to use teargas in schools: All these are horrific acts, whether they are part of a war against ‘terrorism’ or the requirements of security. Not to note them, not to remember them, not to say, ‘Wait a moment: Can such acts be necessary for the sake of the Jewish people?’ is inexplicable, but it is also to be complicit in these acts. The self-imposed silence of intellectuals who possess, in other cases and for other countries, supremely fine critical faculties is stunning.”</p><p class="dcr-1eu361v">Reading these lines, you might believe Said is a prophet. How else could his decades-old words sound like they’ve been ripped from this morning’s headlines? In truth, it’s not that Said was prescient – it’s that Palestinian dispossession continues, that the Israeli occupation remains, that justice for Palestinians is as elusive as ever. If anything has changed, it’s the scale of the violence, but not the violence itself.</p><p class="dcr-1eu361v">Reading Said reminds us of the necessity of standing against oppression everywhere, of discovering an ethical position that translates into action, and of adopting skepticism before partisanship. “Never solidarity before criticism,” as Said was fond of saying, just as he often talked about Palestine being the “touchstone” for human rights globally today.</p><p class="dcr-1eu361v">If new generations are discovering Edward Said, in the process, they’re finding out how the question of Palestine can guide their larger principles. And they’re also witnessing the unconscionable. <a href="https://apnews.com/article/israel-gaza-bombs-destruction-death-toll-scope-419488c511f83c85baea22458472a796" data-link-name="in body link">Large-scale death</a> from the air, <a href="https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/12/18/israel-starvation-used-weapon-war-gaza" data-link-name="in body link">starvation</a> as a weapon of war, western complicity with a plausible genocide, and a people abused beyond what any reasonable person could bear. It’s a lot to digest, and it leads to the one lesson about Palestine that no one, not even Edward Said, can ever really prepare you for. Palestine will save your soul, but it will also break your heart.</p></div></div><gu-island name="SlotBodyEnd" priority="feature" deferUntil="visible"
