SUMMARY:Author Amal Ghandour [afikra Conversations]
DESCRIPTION:Amal Ghandour is a Lebanese-Jordanian author and blogger (Thinking Fits)\, with a career that spans more than three decades in the fields of research\, communication\, and community development. Her book\, About This Man Called Ali (2009)\, was named the first biography of a modern Arab artist by the renowned Historian Philip Mansel. Ghandour describes her new book\, This Arab Life\, A Generation’s Journey Into Silence (October 11\, 2022)\, “as a memoir that is not of an individual but of the generation that came of political age in the 1980s in the Levant.” This Arab Life\, she adds\, “is an intimate rendition of the times that shaped us; the way we internalized our parents’ myriad dejections and disappointments; the pragmatism and silence that defined us; and the dispiriting inheritance we inexorably bequeathed our own children.” Ghandour holds an MS in International Policy from Stanford University and a BSFS from Georgetown University. Among her works: Aeon\, The Daily Beast\, Washington Independent Review of Books\, Midanmasr\, Canvas.

SUMMARY:Madafeh - Book Event - Fida Jiryis - author of the book "Stranger in My Own Land"
DESCRIPTION:After the 1993 Oslo Accords\, a handful of Palestinians were allowed to return to their hometowns in Israel. Fida Jiryis and her family were among them. \nThis beautifully written memoir tells the story of their journey\, which is also the story of Palestine\, from the Nakba to the present—a seventy-five-year tale of conflict\, exodus\, occupation\, return and search for belonging\, seen through the eyes of one writer and her family. Jiryis reveals how her father\, Sabri\, a PLO leader and advisor to Yasser Arafat\, chose exile in 1970 because of his work. Her own childhood in Beirut was shaped by regional tensions\, the Lebanese Civil War and the 1982 Israeli invasion\, which led to her mother’s death. Thirteen years later\, the family made an unexpected return to Fassouta\, their village of origin in the Galilee. But Fida\, twenty-two years old and full of love for her country\, had no idea what she was getting into. \nStranger in My Own Land chronicles a desperate\, at times surreal\, search for a homeland between the Galilee\, the West Bank and the diaspora\, asking difficult questions about what the right of return would mean for the millions of Palestinians waiting to come ‘home’. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFida Jiryis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Fida Jiryis\nFida Jiryis is a Palestinian author living in Ramallah. She grew up in Lebanon and Cyprus\, the daughter of Palestinian intellectual and leader\, Sabri Jiryis. As her family fled Israel’s oppression and wars\, Fida’s life has spanned the full spectrum of the Palestinian people’s forced fragmentation: in Israel\, the West Bank and the diaspora. Her writings include several collections of Arabic short stories; a contribution to the book\, Kingdom of Olives and Ash\, a Washington Post bestseller; and Ha-Cluv (The Cage)\, a Hebrew translation of her short stories published this year. Her most recent book\, Stranger in My Own Land\, describes her and her family’s remarkable life journey which is\, in many respects\, the story of Palestine.

SUMMARY:“When We Were Arabs – Memory\, Erasure and Cultural Connections” Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Diverse expressions of historical memory persist and gain meaning despite nationalist projects to minimize diversity in pursuit of an imaginary homogeneity that in truth exists practically nowhere in the world. The fact that such attempts at erasure are responsible not only for cultural amnesia\, but for denial of common cultural experiences that would foster acceptance instead of rejection. This workshop will place two works of historical memory into conversation. Coincidentally\, two authors representing two culturally related but geographically distant societies gave their books the same title: When We Were Arabs to invoke that claim of identity (Cuando Fuimos Arabe). They are Emilio González Ferrín\, University of Seville\, and journalist Massoud Hayoun based in Los Angeles. This conversation\, moderated by educator Dr. Rabiah Khalil\, will explore the persistence of memory and affirm the value of recognizing shared roots and accepting the richness of our diversity. \nThis program is sponsored by Georgetown University’s Center for Contemporary Arab Studies\, Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding\, the Arab American National Museum and Montgomery College Office of Advancement and Community Engagement \nThis program is made possible by a Title VI grant from the United States Department of Education\, which is funding a National Resource Center on the Middle East at Georgetown University\, and by support from the Center for Contemporary Arab Studies at Georgetown and the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding. \nFor more questions\, e-mail Dave Serio at DSerio@accesscommunity.org

SUMMARY:Book Launch and Activist Gathering
DESCRIPTION:“Greater than the Sum of Our Parts” is by Nada Elia\, local author and activist\, and is newly published by Pluto Press. Nada’s book launch provides an opportunity to connect with fellow activists\, expand our knowledge of each other’s struggles\, and hear from Nada about this important book!\n\n\n\n\n\n \nWHEN: Saturday\, March 4\, 4:00-6:00 pm\nWHERE: Cherry Street Village\, 720 25th Avenue Seattle\, WA 98122\n \nPlease Register here! (If you can’t make it but would still like a copy of the book\, you can get one here!)\n \nABOUT THE EVENT:\n\nToday\, 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.\n\n \nABOUT THE BOOK: \n\n\n\n\n\nHow 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?\nIn 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.\nGreater 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.\n\n \nHosted by: Dunya Productions-Seattle\n

SUMMARY:Town Hall Seattle: Raja Shehadeh — 'We Could Have Been Friends\, My Father and I: A Palestinian Memoir'
DESCRIPTION:About the event. . .\nIn his life\, Aziz Shehadeh was many things — among them a lawyer\, a political detainee\, and the father of activist and author\, Raja Shehadeh. \nRaja’s latest book\, We Could Have Been Friends\, My Father and I\, is a subtle psychological portrait of a complicated father-son relationship. Set against the backdrop of continuing political unrest\, Raja describes his failure as a young man to recognize his father’s courage as an activist\, and\, in turn\, his father’s inability to appreciate Raja’s own efforts in campaigning for Palestinian human rights. Then in 1985\, Aziz Shehadeh is murdered\, and Raja undergoes a profound and irrevocable change. \nWe Could Have Been Friends acts in part as the story of Palestine’s continual fight against multiple foreign powers\, but at its core presents a poignant unraveling of a complex father-son relationship\, unlike many we have seen before.

SUMMARY:Rainbow Parenting w/ Lindz Amer at Powell's Books
DESCRIPTION:Lindz Amer\nSaturday\, June 3 @ 2pm (PT) / Powell’s City of Books \nIn the face of so many injustices across society for LGBTQ+ people\, it can be easy for parents of young children to feel helpless and hopeless. While they may not be able to address every problem across the country\, there’s a simple place to start: right at home. Rainbow Parenting (St. Martin’s Griffin) is an essential stepping stone for adults who want to raise and teach kids in a queer-affirming way\, but might not know how. Lindz Amer\, the founder of Queer Kid Stuff\, an award-winning LGBTQ+ educational webseries for children and families\, is an indispensable guide\, leading readers through practical applications\, important LGBTQ+ history\, key lessons in intersectionality\, pronouns\, social justice\, and more. Divided by sections that address kids’ individual ages — from infancy to kindergarten — this joyful and approachable book shares a bit of hope and starts with the understanding that anyone can spread queer joy. By giving parents and their kids a vocabulary to express themselves\, Rainbow Parenting ultimately aims to create more empathetic adults — and spreads a message of radical acceptance in a world where it’s sometimes dangerous to just be yourself. \nPreorder a Signed Edition

SUMMARY:Honoring Palestinian Fathers with PFC
DESCRIPTION:Palestinian Feminist Collective (PFC) warmly invites you to join us for our June 2023 Feminist Futures Program. This month we are honoring Palestinian fathers with a virtual event meant to create space for\, honor and recognize the complex lived experiences and realities of Palestinian fathers. We will be hosting two incredible speakers: Raja Shehadeh\, author of the memoir We Could Have Been Friends\, My Father and I\, and Abeer Otman\, postdoctoral scholar\, who will unpack how Zionist settler colonialism impinges on Palestinian fatherhood\, as well as how fathers defy settler colonialism by showing love\, care\, and protection for their families and homes. As Palestinian feminists\, we will conceptualize: What are the experiences of Palestinian fathers – diverse and complicated? How do we tell these stories of fatherhood? How can we continue to hold them and make space for them in our pursuit of Palestinian liberation? \n  \nAbeer Otman’s postdoctoral research investigates father-child connectivity under the settler-colonial context. She has a doctorate in social work from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her doctoral research focused on fathers and fatherhood in a settler colonial context: the case of occupied East Jerusalem (OEJ). As a community and social worker in East Jerusalem for more than ten years\, she engages in local activities concerning fulfillment of socio-economic rights\, improving physical spaces\, developing social and educational services. \nRaja Shehadeh is a Palestinian lawyer\, human rights activist\, and writer. He co-founded the Palestinian human rights organization Al-Haq in 1979. He is the author of several books\, including Palestinian Walks\, which he won the Orwell Prize in 2008. In addition to his legal work\, Shehadeh has written a number of books about Palestine through the lens of his life\, including Strangers in the House (2002)\, Occupation Diaries (2012)\, and his latest\, We Could Have Been Friends\, My Father and I: A Palestinian Memoir (2022).

SUMMARY:Mona Awad in Conversation With Leni Zumas [Portland]
DESCRIPTION:Mona Awad in Conversation With Leni Zumas\nThursday\, September 21 @ 7pm (PT) / Powell’s City of Books \nFrom Mona Awad\, author of Bunny\, comes a horror-tinted\, gothic fairy tale about a lonely dress shop clerk whose mother’s unexpected death sends her down a treacherous path in pursuit of youth and beauty. Can she escape her mother’s fate ­— and find a connection that is more than skin deep? For as long as she can remember\, Belle has been insidiously obsessed with her skin and skincare videos. When her estranged mother Noelle mysteriously dies\, Belle finds herself back in Southern California\, dealing with her mother’s considerable debts and grappling with lingering questions about her death. The stakes escalate when a strange woman in red appears at the funeral\, offering a tantalizing clue about her mother’s demise\, followed by a cryptic video about a transformative spa experience. With the help of a pair of red shoes\, Belle is lured into the barbed embrace of La Maison de Méduse\, the same lavish\, culty spa to which her mother was devoted. There\, Belle discovers the frightening secret behind her (and her mother’s) obsession with the mirror — and the great shimmering depths (and demons) that lurk on the other side of the glass. Snow White meets Eyes Wide Shut in Awad’s surreal descent into the dark side of beauty\, envy\, grief\, and the complicated love between mothers and daughters. With black humor and seductive horror\, Rouge (S&S/Marysue Rucci Books) explores the cult-like nature of the beauty industry — as well as the danger of internalizing its pitiless gaze. Brimming with California sunshine and blood-red rose petals\, Rouge holds up a warped mirror to our relationship with mortality\, our collective fixation with the surface\, and the wondrous\, deep longing that might lie beneath. Awad will be joined in conversation by Leni Zumas\, author of Red Clocks.

It constitutes a collective effort to organize and center Palestinian voices in the ongoing struggle. As political discourse shifts toward futurism as a means of reimagining a better way of living\, beyond the violence and limitations of colonialism\, Light in Gaza is an urgent and powerful intervention into an important political moment. \nRegister at bit.ly/LightInGazaUW\nFacebook Event: https://fb.me/e/30ECERxWN

SUMMARY:Ghassan Zeineddine in Conversation With Omar El Akkad [Portland]
DESCRIPTION:Spanning several decades\, Ghassan Zeineddine’s debut collection examines the diverse range and complexities of the Arab American community in Dearborn\, Michigan. In ten tragicomic stories\, Zeineddine explores themes of identity\, generational conflicts\, war trauma\, migration\, sexuality\, queerness\, home and belonging\, and more. In Dearborn (Tin House)\, a father teaches his son how to cheat the IRS and hide their cash earnings inside of frozen chickens. Tensions heighten within a close-knit group of couples when a mysterious man begins to frequent the local gym pool\, dressed in Speedos printed with nostalgic images of Lebanon. And a failed stage actor attempts to drive a young Lebanese man with ambitions of becoming a Hollywood action hero to LA\, but Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have other plans. By turns wildly funny\, incisive\, and deeply moving\, Dearborn introduces readers to an arresting new voice in contemporary fiction and invites us all to consider what it means to be part of a place and community\, and how it is that we help one another survive. Zeineddine will be joined in conversation by Omar El Akkad\, author of What Strange Paradise.
