I’m looking forward to presenting and helping those researching and documenting their Palestinian families next Saturday in Sacramento at NSAB’s Palestinian American Genealogy Hands-On In-Person Workshop. We still have a few spots open. It is free, but registration is required. Register here: https://forms.gle/KUG2KxmWK3B1hteM7 .
A few people have asked: “I can list my family back several generations, how will this workshop help me?”
Having a list of names is a meaningful start, but it isn’t the same as documenting, preserving, and recording your family history with sources, records, or stories that can be passed down.
In this workshop, we’ll share practical ways for Palestinian families to preserve family stories, find historical documentation, and organize what you already know. If you don't know where to start, this is definitely the place for you.
This matters deeply to me personally as I work to pass down my own family’s story. Instead of allowing our families to be erased from history, we are doing the work to document that history. I want to do my part to make sure we are all doing this work.
If you’re interested, I hope you’ll join us in Sacramento on March 28. If you’re not able to attend, please sign up for the NSAB newsletter to stay informed about future workshops and upcoming programs we hope to offer. See linktr.ee/arabamericangenealogy to sign up.
