Join us for the rescheduled session 2 of Poetry for Palestine. An evening featuring live poetry readings and coming together in community to celebrate Palestine’s most beloved art form!In the face of an ongoing genocide of the people of Palestine by the colonial and apartheid state of Israel, Palestinian poets have continued to turn to poetry as a powerful act of cultural resistance and storytelling. As the Zionist occupation continues to target, suppress, and silence Palestinian voices, poetry remains a vital means of preserving memory, reclaiming their own narratives and affirming a people that continues to endure.
For this spoken word event, we invite attendees to perform your own original poem about Palestine, read a poem by a Palestinian poet, share a song, story, or other creative expression connected to Palestine during our open mic, or be a supportive member of the audience. Whether you want to take the mic or simply be there to listen, everyone is welcome!
