ABSTRACT
This chapter offers an account of the Arab-Jewish activist multiplicity. By relying on materials from the fieldworks, it analyses Arab-Jewish practices in distinct social spheres and different locations to explore how new material, discursive and affective territories are created in their confrontation with segregative ways of life. The chapter claims that October uprising of 2000 marked a new significant change in the evolution of Palestinian politics and in the ways and intensities. Industrious ten years of activism and hope since the outburst of October uprising frame a view point for critical analysis. The question of how to account for effects of October events on the struggle against Zionist oppressive practices may be approached by an understanding of these events as acts of citizenship. The chapter suggests that the professional encounter in Bnei-Sakhnin between Palestinian, Jewish and overseas players affect elements in encountering bodies so, while some relations of composition are deterritorialised through the encounter, others remain in their previous structure.
