New 1948 T-shirt Collection from Amos Trust. Bold, simple and loaded with meaning — Amos Trust’s new ‘1948’ T-shirts mark the beginning of the Nakba and 77 years of Palestinian dispossession. Wear it to show solidarity, spark conversation and keep the story alive.
In the 1970s, the Israeli government made public displays of the Palestinian flag a criminal offence in Gaza and the West Bank. Palestinian artists began to circumvent the ban by using the watermelon because, when cut open, the fruit bears the national colours of the Palestinian flag — red, black, white and green. So, the humble watermelon became a representation of Palestinian resistance to this day.
You asked, we listened. Our new Sumud merchandise is here! Sumud is an Arabic word that means ‘steadfastness’ or ‘steadfast perseverance’ and is a common term used to describe Palestinian non-violent resistance against Israel’s occupation. Grab yourself a T-shirt, Baseball shirt or Hoodie today. With worldwide shipping available. All profits go to our work in the West Bank and Gaza.
Following the 2014 Gaza War and decades of oppression and resistance, the storytelling platform We Are Not Numbers (WANN) was founded to give a voice to the youth of Gaza. In a rallying cry to onlookers around the world, WANN’s new book offers unparalleled insight into the real lives of the people of Gaza and imagines where we might go from here.
Barely 30 years old, Mosab Abu Toha was already a well-known poet when the current assault on Gaza began. After the Israeli army bombed and destroyed his house, destroying a library he had built for his community use, he and his family fled for their safety. Not for the first time in their lives. His new book, ‘Forest of Noise’ is now available from Amos Trust.
Amos Trust’s On Location exhibition introduces leading visual artists from Gaza and explores the motivations, frustrations and realities of being artists under siege. This 62-page, full-colour coffee table catalogue of the collection is printed on 200-gram silk art board and is the perfect gift for the art lover in your life.
Our second book of poetry, prose, creative writing and reflection is now available. ‘Seeds Of Hope: More Thoughts and Reflections from Amos Trust’ has contributions from Zena Kazeme, Arundhati Roy, Ben Okri, Cornel West, Angela Davis, Robert Cohen, Maya Angelou and our partner Abdelfattah Abusrour. “What a wonderful collection of writing — rich, deep, broad, funny, touching, angry, and, most importantly, encouraging.” Brian Eno — producer, musician, writer and artist.
Our Digital Gift Certificates are an ideal present for those hard-to-buy-for friends and relatives in your life.

Drawing on wisdom from the ages and insights from the everyday, this deeply human collection of daily readings is the ideal travelling companion on the bumpy road to peace, love and understanding. Less of a ‘how to’ book than a ‘try this’ book, Hold On, Let Go is about keeping your feet on this sacred earth. And taking wing. At the same time.
