Nabila Mango was a beautiful example of what happens when resistance is also rooted in an overriding sense of unity. Her focus was always on community — local and global. One of her most powerful forms of protest was preserving Palestinian culture for generations to come. (The very act of doing so speaks to the danger the culture is in of being erased.) Mango also had a special way of imparting to everybody who crossed her path a sense of pride and dignity.
