"A Land With A People is a singular contribution to the decades-long effort to forge global solidarities against Israeli settler colonialism. In giving us everyday narratives of Palestinian courage and resilience, alongside accounts of a growing Jewish resistance to Zionism, the book offers a collective story of fierce struggles against racism and apartheid. It is a story that holds important lessons to all who have dedicated their lives to justice, equality and freedom."--Angela Davis, abolitionist activist-scholar and author of, among other books, Freedom Is a Constant Struggle: Ferguson, Palestine, and the Foundations of a Movement
"A community of Palestinians and Jews committed to a future without Jewish Supremacy Ideology, and with Palestinian autonomy. This is a volume of Palestinian voices towards movement building and creation of a joyous future, and Jews listening and then doing the work of changing their self-perceptions and living our responsibilities. A call to Repair through Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions, through collective actions to end Israeli occupation, Jewish nationalism and apartheid. This book expressed the dynamic relationship necessary to a fair, humane and productive life."--Sarah Schulman, activist and author of, among other books, Israel/Palestine and the Queer International
"By seamlessly and passionately weaving history with heartfelt life experiences, and intensely symbolic stories with candid reflections, this collection reveals the real wreck Zionism has created, shattering the mythology that Zionism has always hidden behind. In doing so, it courageously interrogates the crucial, yet often ignored, relationship between Palestinian liberation from Israeli settler-colonialism and apartheid and Jewish emancipation from the suffocating, racist chains of Zionism. It leaves me with more hope."--Omar Barghouti, Palestinian human rights defender and co-founder of the BDS movement
"Offers a path forward rooted in an understanding of a painful shared history that leads to a commitment to solidarity and justice for all people. Reading it is both illuminating and healing."--Rebecca Vilkomerson, Former Executive Director, Jewish Voice for Peace
"Regardless of one's perspective on Palestine, it is impossible to read this book and not be transformed. After all, these are powerful, indelible, deeply personal stories of what happens when lies are exposed, truths are revealed, and the founding myths of Zionism crumble like a house of sand. The essays and poems collected here break the cycle of "conflict," demand an exit from a century of settler colonial war, and offer a path to repair, return, and rebuilding. It is impossible to read this book and not fight for a free Palestine."--Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination
"2022 WINNER, MIDDLE EAST BOOK AWARD"--Middle East Outreach Council (MEOC) in honor of Lisa Adelia
"This book is an invaluable resource in the effort to challenge the dangerous conflation of anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism, meant to silence criticism of Israel. A Land With a People also helps in understanding that the existential struggle against a racist, settler-colonial system, can, and must, be undertaken by Palestinians and Jews together."--Huwaida Arraf, human rights attorney and co-founder of the International Solidarity Movement
