SUMMARY:P&P Live! Koa Beck — White Feminism: From the Suffragettes to Influencers and Who They Leave Behind - with Ruby Hamad
DESCRIPTION:A timely and impassioned exploration of how our society has commodified feminism and continues to systemically shut out women of color–perfect for fans of White Fragility and Good and Mad .\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin the important conversation about race\, empowerment\, and inclusion in the United States with this powerful new feminist classic and rousing call for change. Koa Beck\, writer and former editor-in-chief of Jezebel\, boldly examines the history of feminism\, from the true mission of the suffragettes to the rise of corporate feminism with clear-eyed scrutiny and meticulous detail. She also examines overlooked communities–including Native American\, Muslim\, transgender\, and more–and their difficult and ongoing struggles for social change. \nKoa Beck is the former editor-in-chief of Jezebel. Previously\, she was the executive editor at Vogue and cohost of “The #MeToo Memos” on WNYC’s The Takeaway.

For her reporting prowess\, she has been interviewed by the BBC and has appeared on many panels about gender and identity at the Harvard Kennedy School at Harvard University\, the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Brooklyn Historical Society\, and Columbia Journalism School to name a few. \nRuby Hamad is a journalist\, author\, and academic completing a Ph.D. in media studies at UNSW (Australia). Her Guardian article\, ‘How White Women Use Strategic Tears to Silence Women of Color\, ‘ became a global flashpoint for discussions of white feminism and racism and inspired her debut book\, White Tears/Brown Scars\, which has received critical acclaim in her home country of Australia.

SUMMARY:P&P Live! Eman Quotah — BRIDE OF THE SEA - with Susan Muaddi Darraj
DESCRIPTION:During a snowy Cleveland February\, newlywed university students Muneer and Saeedah are expecting their first child\, and he is harboring a secret: The word “divorce” is whispering in his ear. Soon\, their marriage will end\, and Muneer will return to Saudi Arabia\, while Saeedah remains in Cleveland with their daughter\, Hanadi. Consumed by a growing fear of losing her child\, Saeedah disappears with the little girl\, leaving Muneer to desperately search for his daughter for years. The repercussions of the abduction ripple outward\, not only changing the lives of Hanadi and her parents\, but also their interwoven family and friends—those who must choose sides and hide their own deeply guarded secrets. \nEman Quotah’s Bride of the Sea is a spellbinding debut of colliding cultures\, immigration\, religion\, and family; an intimate portrait of loss and healing; and\, ultimately\, a testament to the ways we find ourselves inside love\, distance\, and heartbreak. \nQuotah will be in conversation with Susan Muaddi Darraj\, author of the short story collection A Curious Land: Stories from Home\, which won the 2016 AWP Grace Paley Prize for Short Fiction\, the 2016 Arab American Book Award\, and was shortlisted for a Palestine Book Award. In 2019\, she launched the viral #TweetYourThobe social media campaign to promote Palestinian culture. \nThis event is presented in partnership with the Middle East Institute. MEI’s Arts & Culture Center facilitates cross-cultural understanding by promoting the work of Middle Eastern artists\, hosting them in conversation\, and MEI’s Arts & Culture Center facilitates cross-cultural understanding by promoting the work of Middle Eastern artists\, hosting them in conversation\, and connecting them with American counterparts connecting them with American counterparts. \nMonday\, January 25\, 2021 – 8 p.m.

SUMMARY:Online Book Launch: Decolonizing Israel\, Liberating Palestine by Jeff Halper
DESCRIPTION:Please join Jeff Halper and chair Yasmin Alibhai Brown for the launch event of his latest book Decolonizing Israel\, Liberating Palestine: Zionism\, Settler Colonialism\, and the Case for One Democratic State\, published by Pluto Press and co-hosted by The Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD). \n  \n\nPOSTED ONFRI\, JAN 22\, 2021\nOnline Book Launch: Decolonizing Israel\, Liberating Palestine by Jeff Halper\n\n\nPlease join Jeff Halper and chair Yasmin Alibhai Brown for the launch event of his latest book Decolonizing Israel\, Liberating Palestine: Zionism\, Settler Colonialism\, and the Case for One Democratic State\, published by Pluto Press and co-hosted by The Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD).\n\nFor decades we have spoken of the ‘Israel-Palestine conflict’\, but what if our understanding of the issue has been wrong all along? This book explores how the concept of settler colonialism provides a clearer understanding of the Zionist movement’s project to establish a Jewish state in Palestine\, displacing the Palestinian Arab population and marginalizing its cultural presence.EVENT DETAILS\nJeff Halper argues that the only way out of a colonial situation is decolonization: the dismantling of Zionist structures of domination and control and their replacement by a single democratic state\, in which Palestinians and Israeli Jews forge a new civil society and a shared political community. \nTo show how this can be done\, Halper uses the 10-point program of the One Democratic State Campaign as a guide for thinking through the process of decolonization to its post-colonial conclusion. Halper’s unflinching reframing will empower activists fighting for the rights of the Palestinians and democracy for all. \nJeff Halper is the head of the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD) and a founding member of the One Democratic State Campaign. He is the author of War Against the People: Israel\, the Palestinians and Global Pacification (Pluto\, 2015)\, An Israeli in Palestine (Pluto\, 2010)\, Obstacles to Peace (ICAHD\, 2003 and subsequent editions) and Redemption and Revival: The Jewish Yishuv in Jerusalem in the Nineteenth Century (Westview\, 1991). \nYasmin Alibhai-Brown is a prominent political and social commentator\, a journalist\, an author and an Orwell Prize and National Press Awards winner. A regular columnist for the i and feature writer for the Sunday Times Magazine\, she is the editor of Biteback’s Provocations series\, for which she wrote Refusing the Veil in 2014 and In Defence of Political Correctness in 2018. Her other works include Exotic England\, which tells the story of a nation that has always been diverse and hybrid
