Indigenous phoenix rising: Maya Mikdashi, ‘Archives, Prophecy, and Return: The Phoenix of Gaza’, Journal of Palestine Studies, 2026

19Jul26

Abstract: This review essay of The Phoenix of Gaza virtual reality project and exhibit puts Indigenous studies and Palestine studies, as well as scholars of these fields, into citational and historical conversation around the themes of archives, futurity, history, and colonial epistemology. The author describes how experiencing The Phoenix of Gaza took her to three different historical and contemporary locations: Lebanon, the Great Lakes region, and a previous conference on Indigenous studies and settler colonialism at Princeton University.
