Ramzy Baroud Launches New Digital Platform Centered on Gaza, People’s History
Dr. Ramzy Baroud, a Palestinian journalist, internationally syndicated columnist, and editor of The Palestine Chronicle, has officially launched a new digital platform bringing together decades of his work on Palestine, popular struggle, and people-centered history.
The website serves as a centralized, searchable archive of Baroud’s writings, media appearances, and public scholarship, rooted in the concept of ‘history from below’, or people’s history, and focused on narratives systematically excluded from mainstream geopolitical discourse.
Designed for students, researchers, journalists, and activists, the platform bridges academic history with lived experience and collective memory.
Visitors can access an extensive collection of Baroud’s articles published in leading international outlets, alongside detailed information on his published books, including The Last Earth: A Palestinian Story and My Father Was a Freedom Fighter. The site also highlights his upcoming books, Before the Flood and Gaza Rising, co-written with Israeli historian Ilan Pappé.
In addition, the platform features a curated selection of video interviews, podcasts, lectures, and a dedicated portal for speaking engagements and media inquiries, facilitating direct engagement with Baroud’s ongoing work.
To learn more, please visit the new platform and make sure that you follow Baroud on his social media channels.

L’ultima terra. Una storia palestinese
In L’Ultima Terra, Una storia palestinese, Ramzy Baroud ricostruisce la storia della Palestina attraverso le voci di chi l’ha vissuta in prima persona. Il libro rompe con la storiografia tradizionale per dare spazio alle testimonianze di rifugiati, famiglie sradicate e prigionieri politici, trasformando la memoria individuale in una narrazione collettiva.
Fondendo storia orale, racconto personale e analisi politica, L’Ultima Terra sfida i discorsi dominanti che hanno a lungo negato ai palestinesi il diritto di raccontarsi. È un’opera che restituisce centralità all’esperienza umana della Nakba, dell’esilio e della resistenza, affermando che la storia palestinese non è solo perdita, ma anche dignità, sumoud e legame con la terra.
