SUMMARY:Free virtual screening of the documentary film "Going Home\," directed by Omar Al-Qattan
DESCRIPTION:To register for this event please click here. \nAbout the Film \n1995; 48 Minutes\, English and Arabic with English Subtitles. \n“Gives a thorough insight into the historical events surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict\, filmed through the eyes of a former British General reliving the battles and considering the role of the British in the conflict.” —Cantilevers \nIn late 1947\, Palestine is a country in the throes of war between Palestine’s Arabs and Jews. The British government is officially responsible for maintaining law and order but it quickly loses control and decides to abandon the country on May 15th 1948\, leaving behind a war which was to lead to the tragic dispossession of over three quarter million Palestinian Arabs of their homes and the creation of the state of Israel. One man\, Major Derek Cooper\, witnessed those final days of the Mandate as an officer in the British army responsible for the protection of the Arab city of Jaffa. His experiences there marked him so deeply that he continued to work on behalf of Palestine’s refugees for most of his life. The film tells the story of his return to Palestine/Israel in the summer of 1995. \nGoing Home tells the story of Cooper’s return to Israel in the summer of 1995. In an effort to capture the past\, Cooper and his wife revisit famous sites and talk to Palestinians and Israelis about the events of 1948. This film is a compelling look back at the beginning of a conflict that would last for generations to come.

SUMMARY:Civilized People: online movie streaming
DESCRIPTION:During the civil war\, many elites fled the country for safe harbor in Europe’s capitals\, leaving behind apartments and villas in the care of domestic labor imported from Egypt\, the Philippines and Sri-Lanka. These stories of survival have never been recorded\, let alone inspired a fiction film. With scathing humor\, Civilized People draws the portrait of a war-tormented Beirut neighborhood\, at the mercy of the mood swings of a sniper. The plot weaves the tribulations of a Muslim militia fighter and a Christian maid\, with the misadventures of a high-society lady who\, undaunted by checkpoints and shelling\, decides to fly back for a tryst with her lover. Civilized People premiered at Venice (official selection); it screened and at the Toronto International Film Festival and won the Nestor Almendros award (New York\, 2000). The film’s sharp critique of Lebanese elites created an uproar in Lebanon\, and was banned from being screened.

SUMMARY:Open Book Club: Admiring Silence by Abdulrazak Gurnah (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The unnamed narrator of this dazzling novel escapes from Zanzibar to England knowing that he will probably never return. In his new country\, things are not quite as he imagined – the school where he teaches is cramped and violent\, and he quickly forgets how it feels to belong.  But when he meets a beautiful\, rebellious woman named Emma\, and when Emma\, turns away from her white\, middle-class roots to offer him love and bear him a child\, the narrator chooses to hide his past from his new family and his present circumstance from his family back in Zanzibar.  Twenty years later\, when the barriers at last come down in Zanzibar\, he is compelled to go back. What he discovers there\, in a story potent with truth\, will change the entire vision of his life.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is a 1996 novel by the 2021 winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature. \n\n\n\n\n\nAbdulrazak Gurnah was born on 20 December 1948[5] in the Sultanate of Zanzibar\, which is now part of present-day Tanzania.[6] He left the island at the age of 18 following the overthrow of the ruling Arab elite in the Zanzibar Revolution\,[3][1] arriving in England in 1968 as a refugee. He is of Arab heritage\,[7] and his father and uncle were businessmen who had immigrated from Yemen.[8] \n\nEvent date:\n\nThursday\, May 26\, 2022 – 7:30pm to 9:00pm\n\n\n\nEvent address:\n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAtcOmtqz8oE9FjOiOlsluyFQEPr6hcGlIP

SUMMARY:2022 Online Film and Discussion MidEast Series:  Sumud
DESCRIPTION:THE SPRING 2022 ONLINE FILM AND DISCUSSION SERIES  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe theme for this year’s Film Series is Sumud. This is a Palestinian word that means “Steadfastness” or “Steadfast Perseverance.” It is a cultural value in Palestine. There is no possible way Palestinians can defend themselves in the face of one of the most well-equipped military powers in the world. They practice “sumud” which sometimes is an act of making breakfast\, sometimes walking the children to the checkpoint on the way to school\, sometimes\, joining a peaceful protest at a blocked crossroad\, just to say “We are here!” \n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this series we will meet a young Israeli woman who also practices her own sumud as she resists joining the Israeli military. We will discover what sumud looks like in the devastation we call “Gaza”\, and in the tragedy we call “Hebron.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo receive links to the film (watch on your own time within 48 hours of the discussion) and the Zoom discussion\, send a message to seattlemideastfocus@gmail.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMAY 20\, 8 P.M. (discussion)\n200 METERS\nMustafa lives on the Palestinian-controlled side of the wall\, and Salwa and their children on the Israeli side.

SUMMARY:Indigenous Voices from Turtle Island on the Changing Earth: Town Hall (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:It can be easy to settle into the narrative that short-sighted\, individualist behavior is a natural trait of all humankind\, especially when considering how the human impact on the Earth has only recently become apparent to so many. But this narrative is not shared by all people and cultures; for the Indigenous people of the world\, radical alteration of the planet – and of life itself – is a story that is many generations long. It is also a story of adaptation\, perseverance\, courage\, and resourcefulness in the face of genocide and destruction. \nIn an innovative work of research and reportage\, We Are the Middle of Forever places Indigenous voices at the center of conversations about today’s environmental crisis. The book draws on interviews with people from different North American Indigenous cultures and communities\, generations\, and geographic regions. Together\, they share knowledge\, experience\, questions\, observations\, and dreams of maintaining the best relationship possible with all life. \nWe Are the Middle of Forever illuminates the perspectives of those who have been long-attuned to a changing planet. As we look for new ideas and responses to our shared human challenges\, Indigenous voices offer hope\, connection\, and a welcome antidote to the despair arising from the climate crisis. \nDahr Jamail is the author of Beyond the Green Zone: Dispatches from an Unembedded Journalist in Occupied Iraq as well as The End of Ice: Bearing Witness and Finding Meaning in the Path of Climate Disruption. He has won the Martha Gellhorn Prize for Journalism and the Izzy Award. He lives in Washington State.

SUMMARY:Virtual Poetry Book Event: Things You May Find Hidden in My Ear: Poems from Gaza
DESCRIPTION:Mosab Abu Toha is a Palestinian poet and librarian who grew up in Gaza; he will be in conversation with best-selling author Mary Karr to celebrate his debut book of poems\, Things You May Find Hidden in My Ear: Poems from Gaza published by City Lights Books. \n  \n“Mosab Abu Toha is an astonishingly gifted young poet from Gaza\, almost a seer with his eloquent lyrical vernacular … His poems break my heart and awaken it\, at the same time. I feel I have been waiting for his work all my life.”–Naomi Shihab Nye \nIn this poetry debut Mosab Abu Toha writes about his life under siege in Gaza\, first as a child\, and then as a young father. A survivor of four brutal military attacks\, he bears witness to a grinding cycle of destruction and assault\, and yet\, his poetry is inspired by a profound humanity. \nMosab founded the Edward Said Library (the first English-language library in Gaza)\, a project that MECA supports.
