THANK GOD FOR IMMIGRANTS 🧡

Online soon.

“I am from there. I am from here. I am not there and I am not here”. - Mahmoud Darwish

…And in a way, aren’t we all immigrants in some form?

A leader & homemaker. My بيبي 💚

Growing up, bebe’s (p)iscuit was the go-to for any occasion or mood. When we felt down, “let’s make bebe’s biscuit”. When we had guests coming, “we can make bebe’s biscuit”. It will forever be a taste of home for me. So I thought what would Beit Jidu be without sharing that with you all ❤️

I’m sure you and your families all have a version of this recipe with your own renditions. Drew the kalab based on the one mama brought with her from Iraq when she moved to Aotearoa. Stars drawn by Jidu on an Eid envelope he gave me.

May all our family recipes & love continue to live on in our homes - happy Mother’s Day 🩷

There are no words to describe this pain - just an angry ache and despair for what is happening to in our SWANA world.

Our people deserve so much more, our animals deserve so much more, our land deserves so much more. 💔

Each time an aggression occurs, it’s all the more important to show up for our people. It can feel frivolous at times like these - showing up is a form of transforming our grief into love. For the homelands because they do deserve that.

Join us for a screening at Dukkana of the film “Amreeka” by Cherien Dabis 🎥

Amreeka is a universal journey into the lives of a family of immigrants and first-generation teenagers caught between their heritage and the new world in which they now live and the bittersweet search for a place to call home.

Tickets are priced at a sliding scale - pay what you can, with a free ticket option available also.

Tickets at the link in bio - 10% will be donated to The PCRF ❤️‍🩹

Will have some snacks available from local shops on the night as well 🍬

Stoked to be hosting our first event in Naarm with the talented & kind team behind Dukkana ❤️

The 2026 Beit Jidu calendar is now available on our website - creating a space for the SWANA community and beyond where we can all coexist and celebrate each other 💚

Celebrating a range of religious, indigenous, cultural holidays & people.

With sayings from different dialects listed behind each month, it’s an opportunity to maintain our language and the beautiful translations they hold.

We’ve added a birthday each month from from person in every country in the MENA community ❤️ if you don’t know who they are, it’s the perfect opportunity to learn about and connect with a special presence that made their mark.

We want people to see themselves in this calendar and feel represented. We’re hoping to reframe the Eurocentric outlook on our daily practices & aim for this to a be small but impactful step 💚

10% of all proceeds go towards the people of Sudan via Sunduq Al-Sudan and the children of Palestine via The PCRF
