What is in a name? When it comes to "Palestine," the answer is a complex layer of history, linguistics, and colonial politics. Did you know that the word itself isn't Arabic, and that the people we call Palestinians still cannot pronounce the "P" in Palestine?

In this session of Simcha’s Sessions, 3x Emmy Award-winning filmmaker and investigative journalist Simcha Jacobovici dives into the surprising origins of the name Palestine. 

He explores how a Greek word was revived by European colonizers to erase a Jewish connection to the land, and how a modern political movement was born in the 1960s.
