ABOUT THE BOOK
Anan Ameri played a pivotal role in the creation of the Arab American National Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. The Wandering Palestinian chronicles her life from 1974 in Beirut, Lebanon to Detroit, Michigan as she learns how to adjust to culture shock, finds her independence and becomes a driving force in Detroit’s large and politically active Arab American community—an involvement that helped her break away from her isolation and resume her activism, and paved the way for her to become a recognized and respected leader in her community.
