SUMMARY:Mahmoud Khalil: No Land to Stand On: Notes from Detention
DESCRIPTION:“Are you Mahmoud Khalil?” The question marked the start of a politically charged odyssey that took the Palestinian graduate student and legal resident from his pregnant wife and home in New York City\, transported him across the country\, and locked him up in a Louisiana detention camp under threat of deportation. His “crime”: exercising his right to free speech at Columbia University\, where he emerged as a leading voice against the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza. No Land to Stand On is his indelible account\, the story of a man confronting the reality that he had become target number one for a lawless regime shredding basic rights. \nDrawing on his prison diary and writing in vivid\, page-turning detail\, Mahmoud Khalil conjures the despair and cruelty of ICE detention\, where prisoners can vanish overnight and visiting families risk their own deportation. There is humanity\, too\, in the men’s acts of care — their mutual help with documents\, the prison cake they make after Mahmoud can only follow the birth of his son on the public payphone. In tandem\, he tells the multi-generational story of a family expelled from Palestine to a Syrian refugee camp\, of flight from Assad’s regime to Lebanon\, of arrival in an America that promised permanence and protection\, and of the enduring struggle for Palestine.
