Legal anthropologist Dr Marika Sosnowski grew up knowing that her grandparents survived the Holocaust. But it was only when she began researching revolutions and state violence in Syria that she learned that her own family committed war crimes against Palestinians while helping to establish the nation-state of Israel in the 1950’s.  She’s now woven together a very personal tale of two countries, of Muslims and Jews, and how violence echoes through the generations.
