Edited by our friends at the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), Light in Gaza brings together sixteen essays and poems by twelve Palestinian writers. The book includes political essays, personal narratives, economic analysis, and poetry. It imagines what the future of Gaza could be, while reaffirming the critical role of Gaza in Palestinian identity, history, and struggle for liberation. Writer and contributor Yousef M.
