My Palestinian Chicago Cafe Was Attacked. I Turned to the Community, Not Cops.

The establishment of Nabala Cafe came as a response to a growing sense of community and cultural identity among Palestinians in the diaspora.

For many Nabalis, maintaining a connection to our roots is deeply important, especially as we navigate life in a foreign land.

The cafe symbolizes a shared history and resilience, providing a space for community members to gather and celebrate our culture.

Through Nabala Cafe, I've shifted from corporate life's dehumanizing grind to a meaningful existence centered around giving back to the community.
