SUMMARY:BuildPalestine Summit 2022
DESCRIPTION:Our partners at BuildPalestine are planning their third annual summit under the theme of “Designing for Unity”. You are invited to join an exciting 2-day virtual gathering of the global Palestinian community to design the future of Palestine. \nWhat does it mean to be Palestinian today? Furthermore\, in the midst of struggle\, how do we not lose sight of the society that we aspire to build? How do we ensure that unity is a reflection of the rich diversity that is the Palestinian experience? Can we actively ‘design for unity’ in a way that crosses geographic\, economic\, and political divides within Palestine and beyond? \nJoin 65+ speakers in discussion panels\, workshops\, and special talks with influential speakers\, and get to know Palestine’s most dynamic social entrepreneurs to inspire you to make a change.

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:Virtual screening of the film "Hanna K"
DESCRIPTION:Hanna K. is a 1983 American drama film (1H40M) directed by Costa-Gavras\, starring Jill Clayburgh and Gabriel Byrne. The film was an attempt to depict the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in human terms. \nHanna K. is the story of Hanna Kaufman\, a child of Holocaust survivors and an American-Jewish immigrant to Israel\, who is a court-appointed lawyer assigned to defend a Palestinian\, Salim Bakri\, accused of terrorism and infiltration. Salim claims that he was trying to regain possession of his family house. Hanna saves him from a jail sentence\, but he is deported to Jordan. Salim eventually returns\, is jailed for illegal immigration\, and he again asks for her services. Hanna investigates the story and discovered that Salim’s family home is now a tourist attraction in Kafr Rimon\, a settlement built and lived in by Russian Jews. Bakri’s former village of Kufr Rumaneh has disappeared except for a few stones and trees.

SUMMARY:NWFF Movie:  Boycott (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:When a news publisher in Arkansas\, an attorney in Arizona\, and a speech therapist in Texas are told they must choose between their jobs and their political beliefs\, they launch legal battles that expose an attack on freedom of speech across 33 states in America.\nBoycott traces the impact of state legislation designed to penalize individuals and companies that choose to boycott Israel due to its human rights record. A legal thriller with “accidental plaintiffs” at the center of the story\, Boycott is a bracing look at the far-reaching implications of anti-boycott legislation and an inspiring tale of everyday Americans standing up to protect our rights in an age of shifting politics and threats to freedom of speech.

SUMMARY:Matthew Teller\, author of Nine Quarters of Jerusalem with Palestine Museum US
DESCRIPTION:The program begins at 12 Noon US EDT; 7:00 PM Palestine Time\nPlease join us for a session of open discussion about Palestinian topics.\nOur guest for this episode is Matthew Teller\, author of Nine Quarters of Jerusalem\, A New Biography of the Old City \nThis is a Virtual Book Launch \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Book\nThis unique\, absorbing biography of Jerusalem brings to light its overlooked histories and diverse contemporary voices. \nIn Jerusalem\, what you see and what is true are two different things. The Old City has never had “four quarters” as its maps proclaim. And beyond the crush and frenzy of its major religious sites\, many of its quarters are little known to visitors\, its people ignored and their stories untold. Nine Quarters of Jerusalem lets the communities of the Old City speak for themselves. Ranging from ancient past to political present\, it evokes the city’s depth and cultural diversity. \nMatthew Teller’s highly original “biography” features the Old City’s Palestinian and Jewish communities\, but also spotlights its Indian and African populations\, its Greek and Armenian and Syriac cultures\, its downtrodden Dom Gypsy families\, and its Sufi mystics. It discusses the sources of Jerusalem’s holiness and the ideas—often startlingly secular—that have shaped lives within its walls. It is an evocation of place through story\, led by the voices of Jerusalemites.
