Israel-Gaza War: One Year Later | Gaza Lecture Series

Join us to hear from special guests Mouin Rabbani and Sarah Leah Whitson for a one year reflection on the war in Gaza

By Busboys and Poets

We here at Busboys and Poets Books have been watching with horror as the siege on Gaza continues and the civilian death count rises day by day. In partnership with the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding of Georgetown University, we present The Gaza Lecture Series of 2024. We invite everyone to come and learn more about the history of settler colonialism, violence, and genocide in Palestine. Join us for this session to learn about the complicity of the United States in its foreign policy regarding Palestine.

Joining us on the Busboys stage to share their expertise and knowledge are Mouin Rabbani, leading Palestinian Intellectual and co-editor of Jadaliyya, in conversation with Sarah Leah Whitson, Executive Director of Democracy in the Arab World Now (DAWN). There will be a curated selection of books by Palestinian authors/about Palestine available for purchase during and after the event.

This event is free and open to all. Our program begins at 6:00 pm, and will be followed by an audience Q&A. Please note that this event is in person and will be livestreamed.

We ask that guests RSVP in order to receive direct updates about the event from Busboys and Poets Books
