A Two-Part Virtual Symposium Hosted by the Palestinian Feminist Collective

April 29, 2023 - April 30, 2023

The PFC invites all our communities to a two-day virtual symposium honoring Palestinian Political Prisoners. The symposium centers the Palestinian concept and practice of sumoud.
Part I will address the historic and contemporary enactment of sumoud in the Palestinian prisoners’ movement with a special focus on organizing among Palestinian women prisoners featuring Milena Ansari, Dr. Lena Meari and Dr. Samah Saleh.
Part II features former Palestinian women prisoners who will provide live testimony that details the dehumanization of the Zionist settler-colonial and carceral structure and the various ways sumoud animated their resistance, resilience, and survival. The discussion features Dareen Tatour, Muna Qaddan, Shatha Odeh, Anagheem Awad, Elya Abuhijleh, Rasmea Odeh, and Nida Abubaker.
