FCNL Book Club: Light in Gaza

3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
August 29

Please join Friends Committee on National Legislation in reading and discussing the book Light In Gaza! The anthology imagines what the future of Gaza could be, while reaffirming the critical role of Gaza in Palestinian identity, history, and struggle for liberation. It contains works by eleven Palestinian writers and poets. It constitutes a collective effort to organize and center Palestinian voices in the ongoing pursuit of justice.

Light In Gaza was published by our friends at American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) and Haymarket Books. You can learn about the book and download a free digital copy here: Light in Gaza | HaymarketBooks.org

If you are only able to read a few selections before the date of the book club, we would still love for you to join and be a part of our discussion!
