Palestinian Prose and Poetry: A Literary Salon

Join us Monday December 2nd at 4pm in the Lown Room in the Memorial Union (@ UMaine) to exchange poetry and prose from a Palestinian perspective!

With the ongoing genocide in Palestine, many of us are struggling to find the right words to speak of it, and to speak for it. This event is being held with the intention of creating an empathetic awareness of the Palestinian cause by creating a space where literature (poetry and/or prose) by Palestinian authors, poets and scholars is shared and understood. Students, staff and faculty are invited to bring and recite excerpts from Palestinian literature which speak about the lived experiences of Palestinians, the occupation and exile.
