This article delves into the Jewish community’s response to British policy in Palestine during 1939. At the time, the British government explored different methods to resolve the national conflict in Palestine, including a failed plan to divide the land. In May of that year, the British government introduced a new policy known as The White Paper policy, which was met with strong opposition from the Jewish community, who began preparing for a protest. By analyzing historical newspapers and archive documents, this article aims to depict the Yishuv’s arrangements for the demonstrations. In particular, the article focuses on the soundscape of the protests – which includes voices, noises, and silence – to illustrate their significance and impact.
