Sayed Kashua is the creator of the hugely popular Israeli television sitcom Arab Labour and one of the country’s most successful writers. He has a (largely) satirical column in Haaretz and is the author of the novels Dancing Arabs, Let it be Morning, Second Person Singular and Exposure. He sat down with Fathom’s Jules Robinson to talk about his experience as an Arab living in Israel, the challenges faced by Israel’s Arab citizens, and the need for a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
