Monday, July 10, 2017: Occupation: Palestine

Colonialism - Past, Present and Future

Find this book at your local bookstore or online.
Fida Jiryis, a Palestinian born and raised outside of Palestine now living in Ramallah, discusses the experience of returning from exile to live inside Israel's borders, the differences between writing in English and Arabic, and why she chose to write a women's fiction book with a Canadian non-Palestinian protagonist.

Fida is one of the contributors to the best-selling new book, Kingdom of Olives and Ash: Writers Confront the Occupation, a partnership between the Israeli project Breaking the Silence and U.S.-based authors Ayelet Waldman and Michael Chabon.
