<p>For this week’s <em>Start Making Sense</em> podcast we have two archival segments about Palestinians; neither is about the current war. </p><p>In 2016, Rachel Kushner visited Shuafat, the only Palestinian refugee camp inside Jerusalem. She went alongside a community organizer as he tried to solve massive problems. Her report, published originally in the <em>New York Times Magazine</em>, appears in her 2021 book of nonfiction, <em>The Hard Crowd</em>.</p><p>Also on this episode, Adam Shatz talks about Edward Said, the leading voice of Palestinians in the US before he died in 2003.
