Come meet Tareq Baconi and discuss his new book with JVP-NYC
Wednesday, November 11 · not specified · Virtual
Join JVP-NYC's Solidarity Book Club to discuss Tareq Baconi's new book What Now: On Palestine, Freedom, and Our Global Future with the author himself. Baconi is a renowned Palestinian writer, scholar, and activist whose philosophical and political treatise draws from the lineage of Frantz Fanon, Angela Davis, and Edward Said—a meditation on liberation for Palestine and all people in the twenty-first century. The evening brings together anti-Zionist Jews and allies to learn from Palestinian voices and organize in solidarity. You'll participate in breakout group discussions with Baconi, then close with an interview and Q&A with the author. The book is relatively short at 192 pages, giving you just over a week from its November 3rd release to prepare. This is a free event; preordering directly from the publisher is encouraged so you can read ahead.
