ABOUT THE EVENT:
Today, there is a growing understanding that Palestinian liberation is connected to numerous other struggles for safety, dignity, freedom, and self sovereignty. This book launch and gathering will be an opportunity to hear more about and celebrate the launch of GREATER THAN THE SUM OF OUR PARTS. Equally important, It will be a much-needed opportunity to meet and network with fellow activists and organizers, so we can expand our knowledge of each other’s struggles, and better show up for each other.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
How is the struggle for Palestinian freedom bound up in other freedom struggles, and how are activists coming together globally to achieve justice and liberation for all?
In this bold book, Palestinian activist Nada Elia unpacks Zionism, from its hypermilitarism to incarceration, its environmental devastation and gendered violence. She insists that Palestine’s fate is linked through bonds of solidarity to other communities crossing racial and gender lines, weaving an intersectional feminist understanding of Israeli apartheid throughout her analysis. She also looks deeper into the interconnectedness of Palestine with Black, migrant, and queer movements, and with other indigenous struggles against settler colonialism, including that of Native Americans.
Greater than the Sum of Our Parts is a powerful and hopeful account, highlighting the role of the Palestinian diaspora, youth, and women, and inspired by activists across the world.
