Stone joins us this evening to speak on the book before joining Harriet Zaidman and Tami Gadir in conversation. A book signing will follow.

As an anti-Zionist Jew, she has written and presented about resistance to the Nazis in Germany and Poland, and by Jews, and many other topics including women workers, sexual politics, the Middle East and the radical Jewish tradition.
