Each month we open the doors between our classrooms and seat 40 guests for a five-course family-style feast\, featuring all the ingredients we’re excited about. And this October we’re hosting another very special dinner\, with Nadia Tommalieh taking the lead. We’re excited to welcome local poet Lena Khalaf Tuffaha to celebrate her new book “Kaan and Her Sisters” with a menu inspired by her writing. This book of poems is about grief\, survival\, displacement\, and intergenerational memory\, following a teacher of Arabic from her origins in Palestine to the cities of the Arab world. It’s a perfect pairing for Nadia’s cooking\, which is itself powerfully informed by memories of Palestine — we can’t wait to taste what comes from this conversation. Pricing includes tip\, a wine pairing with each savory course\, tea or coffee with dessert\, and a signed copy of “Kaan and Her Sisters”.

In light of the Western media’s biased coverage and one-sided narrative that often favors Israel\, it is crucial to provide an alternative perspective that delves into the historical context and Israel’s actions over the past 75 years that have contributed to the current situation. Our aim is to present a comprehensive understanding of the complex dynamics at play and offer an opportunity for visitors to uncover the true facts. By joining us at the open house\, attendees will have the chance to learn about the rich historical background of Palestine and gain valuable insights that are often omitted from mainstream narratives. We invite all interested individuals to come and engage in meaningful conversations that have the potential to broaden horizons and foster a more comprehensive understanding of the Palestinian struggle for freedom and justice.

Among her earliest and indelible art influences and “training” grounds were her mother’s clothing designs\, her father’s storytelling feats\, her native city’s omnipresent visual worlds of hand-weaving arts\, first centuries BCE monumental representational mosaic “paintings”\, and the vestiges of a bygone Roman Empire. Visual storytelling and ancient scripts have held her focus since childhood. There\, the first waves of infinite geometric designs and limitless color palettes permeated her psyche. Hopping around or staring at the fallen or still standing marble statues of all sizes\, texts hand-engraved on steles\, and very young olive trees cracking life open right through ancient fallen columns in her native Carthage\, Tunisia and across North Africa are still among her sources of inspiration. She is also inhabited and taught by the geographic and human landscapes of the American Northwest.

Jude Fernandez started labor organizing during the era of Martial Law under Marcos Sr. and had continued the work until now. \nThe Philippine National Police (PNP) who perpetrated the murder\, claimed that Jude attempted to fight back in an attempt to justify the killing\, despite him being an unarmed unionist. This is the 72nd labor-related killing in the Philippines since 2016 and the fourth within this year of 2023\, by paramilitary units funded by the United States. We view these attacks as not just against one person\, but the whole of the Philippine labor movement\, and of the international labor movement. \nUS funding and support for attacks against the people is not isolated to the Philippines\, as we have continued to see with the most recent bombings on the Palestinian people. The Biden administration has continued to express support for the apartheid state of Israel\, despite their campaign of genocide against civilians in Gaza and the West Bank\, dropping 6\,000 bombs between October 7th and October 12th\, the use of White Phosphorous bombs against populated areas\, as well as en masse “terror-tagging” and continued bombings of civilians and evacuation routes.

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.
