Research Question

Is the meaning Arabs and Palestinians in the Arab world attach to the keffiyeh different from the meaning Arabs and Palestinians here in the West (including the diaspora in Toronto) attach to the scarf? If so, what is that difference? If not, what is it about the keffiyeh that unites the Arab diaspora with their people back home?

How does the keffiyeh connect and reinforce relationships and identity among Arabs across transnational borders?
