2015 in Pictures: What Mondoweiss Showed The World

Today we highlight some of the amazing photographs published by Mondoweiss in 2015, showing major news events as well as daily life in Israel/Palestine. Some shots portray victories, some the depths of despair or fury, and others simply the human moments of family and work life.

We are proud to provide a channel by which these vital images reach so many people. We hope that those who understand the realities of Palestinian life may be strengthened in their convictions—and their ability to change minds—by the ongoing visual documentation of oppression.

More than that, we believe that those who have not yet focused on this critical world issue, or who have not yet freed themselves from the one-sided stories provided in the mainstream media, can be shocked into new understanding by powerful images.
