Tanya Habjouqa | The Good Samaritans
Tanya Habjouqa explores ancient Torah whodunnit theft against the backdrop of Samaritan ceremony for NPR. Cited as the most ancient Torahs stolen in the Holy Land since the Crusaders pillaged Jerusalem, they belonged not to Jews but to the Samaritans, one of the world's oldest and tiniest religious sects. Known from the New Testament parable of the Good Samaritan, the group has barely survived. Centuries ago, it numbered more than 1 million; today, according to the last count, there are only 810 Samaritans left.

Introducing 48 Stories
For Israelis, May 1948 marks the creation of the State of Israel. For Palestinians, it marks the Nakba (‘catastrophe’): more than 700.000 Palestinians were forced out of their homes.
Today – exactly 70 years later – those 700.000 have exceeded six million. 48 Storiespresents the personal stories of Palestinians who witnessed the events and shows where they live today.
48 Stories: Mapping the Palestinian diaspora
48 Stories presents the personal stories of Palestinians who witnessed the events and shows where they live today. This project was produced by NOOR, the NOOR Foundation, Palestinian and other photographers from the Middle East, designers Kummer & Herrman and Paradox. 48 Stories sheds new light on the representation of the Palestinian diaspora.
The project documents the memories and everyday lives of Palestinians, both 1948 survivors and their descendants. Many of them live in Gaza, the West Bank or Israel but the vast majority is spread around the world; they are based in (former) refugee camps in Lebanon, Syria or Jordan, have settled in countries like the US, Chile and the Netherlands.
