Razing Palestine Book Launch
November 20 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Free
Join us as we commemorate two years of gruelling, heartbreaking and horrific genocide in Gaza. While our institutions would have rather we stood by and said nothing, not everyone remained silent. This anthology was written by Canadian from across the country who experienced repression, punishment and violence for standing up for Palestine.
RAZING PALESTINE: PUNISHING SOLIDARITY AND DISSENT IN CANADA is edited by Leila Marshy (author, The Philistine, and My Thievery of the People) and includes testimonies from journalists, healthcare workers, academics, artists and activists from across Canada.
Join contributors LIBBY DAVIES and SEAN TUCKER for an evening of readings and discussion.
As Gabor Maté writes in the Foreword:
“This anthology is subversive in the most positive sense of the world. It seeks to provide an unequivocal and evidence-based response to the enforced silence around what millions of people the world over recognize as the most urgent moral issue of our time: the unspeakable suffering imposed on the people of Gaza.”
