SUMMARY:The Magical Writer: QTIPOC Authors Dissect Magic Realism
DESCRIPTION:As a genre\, magic realism feels like a blessing and a curse. It offers space to marginalized folks to tell their stories without feeling triggered by it\, and open space for a richer approach to imagination. Yet\, it also feels like a stamp of approval for us to reach a wider audience\, an evaluation of the magical Indian\, the capable Black\, the exotic Arab\, or the mysterious Asian troupes. \nIn this panel\, we will be discussing the origin of the term\, asking ourselves if we identify with it\, and looking at the relationship between QTIPOC authors and the way the term is understood by the mainstream White\, heteronormative society. \nCurator Danny Ramadan brings together some of the most exciting voices in Canada: Joshua Whitehead (Johnny Appleseed\, Making Love with the Land)\, Larissa Lai (The Tiger Flu\, Iron Goddess of Mercy)\, and Rasiqra Revulva (Cephalopography 2.0). \nCurated and moderated by Danny Ramadan

SUMMARY:Rusha Latif with Isma'il Kushkush
DESCRIPTION:This virtual program brings to readers here (everywhere) the work of Rusha Latif\, a San Francisco Bay area writer/researcher and a first-generation Egyptian American. Travels and research undertaken in Cairo a decade ago and since have now become her new book\, Tahrir’s Youth: Leaders of a Leaderless Revolution (American University in Cairo Press). \n“As its excellent subtitle indicates\, this book debunks many myths related to the so-called leaderless revolutions through meticulous fieldwork investigation of the young leaders of Egypt’s 2011 uprising in its Cairene epicenter. It is a much-needed contribution to the study of the twenty-first century’s pattern of uprisings\, showing how a popular movement that goes beyond an ephemeral explosion of anger is necessarily led by more than a virtual network.”―Gilbert Achcar. \n“In a moment characterized by the revival of authoritarian regimes and democratic setbacks\, this book is a welcome analysis that puts youth activism in post-2011 Egypt in a revealing historic\, sociological\, and political perspective. Using primary sources\, including in-depth interviews with the youth leaders of the January 25 Revolution\, Latif’s work offers indispensable insights into the mobilization strategies and trajectories of the youth groups that resisted three successive regimes between 2011 and 2013. Her book powerfully explains how youth activism has forever changed Egyptian politics.”―Amr Hamzawy. \n“Rusha Latif . . . embedded herself with young activists and writes about what the world can learn from a defeated revolt.”―Leila Fadel\, NPR. \nIsma’il Kushkush will join Rusha in conversation. He is a journalist who has contributed to The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, New Yorker\, The Atlantic\, The Nation\, CNN\, the Associated Press (AP)\, Guernica Magazine\, and others. He has covered political\, economic\, social and cultural stories from Sudan\, South Sudan\, Kenya\, Ethiopia\, Somalia\, Burundi\, Sweden\, Israel the Palestinian territories and the United States. He is currently based in Khartoum\, Sudan.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Yousr Shaltout
DESCRIPTION:Yousr Shaltout is an Egyptian /Lebanese medical student and Tatreez artist based in New Jersey. Yousr is self taught\, and first fell in love with the art as well as its political and cultural significance four years ago. In 2021\, Yousr was awarded the NJ Council of the Arts Folk Arts Apprenticeship Grant. Under the apprenticeship\, Yousr created her first thobe under the mastery of Wafa Ghnaim of The Tatreez Institute (Tatreez & Tea). Yousr’s next project is to design\, sew\, and embroider a thobe for her medical school graduation in 2024 as the culmination of her skills in the craft. It will combine the various styles of embroidery from Palestine and those from her roots in Lebanon\, Egypt\, and Syria to showcase that Tatreez is an art form shared across the Arab world with distinct regional and cultural styles and motifs. \nYousr is the proud owner of a small business selling tatreez patterns and tatreez inspired items. You can support her work at tatreezing.etsy.com or by following her journey at her Instagram @tatreezing. \nLearn more about Yousr’s thobe project and concept\, by registering to this artist talk.

SUMMARY:Arab American and Muslim Representation
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to ParentChild+’s virtual series Windows\, Mirrors & Doors\, where children’s book authors\, educators\, and advocates will lead us in a compelling discussion on Arab American and Muslim representation in children’s literature. The discussion will shine a light on the impact representation has on the well-being and social-emotional development of Arab American and Muslim children.  It will highlight the importance of all children and families learning about Arab Americans and the many continents\, countries\, cultures\, and religions they represent; Muslim families and the many countries and cultures they represent; the importance of Arab and Muslim children seeing themselves in the books they encounter; the ways in which we can equip parents and caregivers to access these books and stories and share them with the children in their lives\, and how we can all advocate for improvements in Arab American and Muslim representation.

SUMMARY:"Madafeh": Hanan Awad\, photographer\, essayist (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Event Occurs Every Sunday-Register Once; Attend All. \n\nThe program begins at 12 Noon US EDT; 7:00 PM Palestine Time.\nPlease join us for a virtual session of open discussion about Palestinian topics. \nPlease click here to register for this event. \nIn 1948\, the year of al-Nakba or “the catastrophe”\, over 750\,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homeland through militarized displacement resulting in the depopulation and destruction of over 400 Palestinian villages. Each village has a unique story regarding the specifics of how it was attacked and how its inhabitants were forcibly expelled. For the most part\, the villages were totally destroyed – leaving only a few that stand to this day. Ayn Hawd and Ayn Karem are these unique cases of villages escaping the brutal destruction that sought to erase the physical signs of the Palestinan presence throughout the region. While the houses and buildings of these two villages were left standing\, the actual Palestinian inhabitants were displaced and are forbidden to return. The stories of Ayn Karem and Ayn Hud are critical for understanding the situation in Palestine as one of settler-colonialism.
