ABOUT THE BOOKTwo years in and we continue to witness a gruelling, heartbreaking and horrific genocide in Gaza. More bombs were dropped on Gaza than in World War II; more children killed, wounded and orphaned than in any other conflict of this century; more journalists and healthcare workers killed than in any other conflict ever; and entire towns and districts are reduced to rubble.
Those who spoke about the carnage were punished by censure, sanction, smearing and worse. Across the country, journalists were muzzled, academics were stifled, doctors were fired, activists were arrested, and artists were banned. Words such as genocide and ceasefire were excised from the vocabulary, and criticism of the conflict invited accusations of antisemitism.
Razing Palestine brings together the testimonies and stories of a wide range of Canadians across a variety of domains who have suffered the cost and consequences of speaking up for Palestine. As Palestine was razed, the courage and the voices of those who raised the issue must not be forgotten.
An evening of discussion presented by
Baraka Books, Independent Jewish Voices - Hamilton, and The City & The City Books.
