The Jaffa Orange Boycott of 1910: Palestine's First Economic Resistance
Om avsnittet
In 1910, Palestinian farmers and merchants in Jaffa organized a boycott of Jewish-made Jaffa oranges, marking one of the earliest organized economic protests against Zionist settlement. This episode explores the context: the Ottoman land code, the rise of Jewish agricultural colonies, and the role of figures like Najib Nassar and his newspaper al-Karmil. We examine how the shamouti orange, a prized export, became a symbol of competing claims. The boycott targeted the Jewish plantation of Mutzar HaYarden and revealed deep tensions over land, labor, and identity. We also discuss the response from Ottoman authorities and the broader implications for Palestinian nationalism. Join Lucas and Luna as they uncover this forgotten chapter of economic resistance.
