The negative affects of this violent occupationfear, threat, humiliationquell hope, setting limits on the potentials of political agency. This article documents the corporeality of the Occupation in Hebron, evoking the body as materially contingent to explore agential capacities within the delimiting affects of the violent sensorium. Drawing on fieldwork with Palestinian activists engaged in providing political tours of Hebron, I argue that by reappropriating the violent affects of occupation, this form of activism demonstrates agency that resists political depression. Theoretically, I argue further, at hand is an empirical account of the autonomy of affect giving rise to critical hope amid a sensorium of fear. The research presented, therefore, contributes to addressing a key question for resistance in Palestine (and beyond): how feara predominant affective register of contemporary politicsmight be harnessed towards (renewed) political agency and resistance to oppression.
