Podcast appearances and mentions of susan abulhawa

In this powerful episode of "The Watchdog," host Lowkey speaks with Palestinian-American author and activist Susan Abulhawa about her firsthand experiences inside Gaza during the ongoing Israeli assault. As one of the few Western-based voices to enter the besieged enclave during the genocide, Abulhawa shares her deeply personal account of life under bombardment, the psychological toll of witnessing mass devastation, and the political cost of speaking uncomfortable truths in Western institutions.Abulhawa reflects on the eerie stillness of Gaza's ruins, the erasure of daily life, and the overwhelming sense of loss she encountered, both human and environmental. She also opens up about the backlash she faced upon returning to the West, including de-platforming, public smears, and institutional silencing, such as censorship from major academic venues like Oxford.This episode intersects witness, memory, and resistance, and why narratives like Abulhawa's are crucial to breaking the wall of manufactured silence surrounding Israel's actions in Gaza.Support the showThe Watchdog is 100% independent and listener-supported.

Mario Soldaini"Il loro grido è la mia voce"Poesie da GazaFazi Editorewww.fazieditore.itA cura di Antonio Bocchinfuso, Mario Soldaini, Leonardo TostiPrefazione di Ilan PappéCon interventi di Susan Abulhawa e Chris HedgesTraduzione dall'arabo di Nabil Bey SalamehTraduzione dall'inglese di Ginevra Bompiani ed Enrico TerrinoniLa poesia come atto di resistenza. La forza delle parole come tentativo di salvezza. È questo il senso più profondo delle trentadue poesie di autori palestinesi raccolte in questo volume, in gran parte scritte a Gaza dopo il 7 ottobre 2023, nella tragedia della guerra in Palestina, in condizioni di estrema precarietà: poco prima di essere uccisi dai bombardamenti, come ultima preghiera o testamento poetico (Abu Nada, Alareer), mentre si è costretti ad abbandonare la propria casa per fuggire (al-Ghazali), oppure da una tenda, in un campo profughi dove si muore di freddo e di bombe (Elqedra). Come evidenzia lo storico israeliano Ilan Pappé nella prefazione, «scrivere poesia durante un genocidio dimostra ancora una volta il ruolo cruciale che la poesia svolge nella resistenza e nella resilienza palestinesi. La consapevolezza con cui questi giovani poeti affrontano la possibilità di morire ogni ora eguaglia la loro umanità, che rimane intatta anche se circondati da una carneficina e da una distruzione di inimmaginabile portata». Queste poesie, osserva Pappé, «sono a volte dirette, altre volte metaforiche, estremamente concise o leggermente tortuose, ma è impossibile non cogliere il grido di protesta per la vita e la rassegnazione alla morte, inscritte in una cartografia disastrosa che Israele ha tracciato sul terreno». «Ma questa raccolta non è solo un lamento», nota il traduttore Nabil Bey Salameh. «È un invito a vedere, a sentire, a vivere. Le poesie qui tradotte portano con sé il suono delle strade di Gaza, il fruscio delle foglie che resistono al vento, il pianto dei bambini e il canto degli ulivi. Sono una testimonianza di vita, un atto di amore verso una terra che non smette di sognare la libertà. In un mondo che spesso preferisce voltare lo sguardo, queste poesie si ergono come fari, illuminando ciò che rimane nascosto». Perché la scrittura, come ricordava Edward Said, è «l'ultima resistenza che abbiamo contro le pratiche disumane e le ingiustizie che sfigurano la storia dell'umanità».Il libro è anche un'iniziativa concreta di solidarietà verso la popolazione palestinese. Per ogni copia venduta Fazi Editore donerà 5 euro a EMERGENCY per le sue attività di assistenza sanitaria nella Striscia di Gaza.https://youtu.be/nwaL8jXE2uwCurata da Antonio Bocchinfuso, Mario Soldaini e Leonardo Tosti, questa raccolta propone una selezione di poesie di dieci autori palestinesi: Hend Joudah, Ni'ma Hassan, Yousef Elqedra, Ali Abukhattab, Dareen Tatour, Marwan Makhoul, Yahya Ashour, Heba Abu Nada (uccisa nell'ottobre 2023), Haidar al-Ghazali e Refaat Alareer (ucciso nel dicembre 2023). Il volume è arricchito da una prefazione dello storico israeliano Ilan Pappé e da due interventi firmati dalla scrittrice Susan Abulhawa, autrice del romanzo bestseller Ogni mattina a Jenin, e dal giornalista premio Pulitzer Chris Hedges, ex corrispondente di «The New York Times» da Gaza.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Tahrir Hamdi is a Professor of Resistance Literature at the Arab Open University in Jordan. She is the author of the award-winning Imagining Palestine and serves as an assistant editor of Arab Studies Quarterly. National identities are inherently fluid, shaped as much by collective beliefs and cultural practices as by official borders and territory. For Palestinians, whose national status remains contested, the articulation and imagination of national identity take on particular urgency. Imagining Palestine: Cultures of Exile and National Identity (Bloomsbury, 2022) examines how Palestinian intellectuals, artists, activists, and ordinary citizens envision their homeland, engaging with the works of key figures such as Edward Said, Ghassan Kanafani, Naji al-Ali, Mahmoud Darwish, Mourid Barghouti, Radwa Ashour, Suheir Hammad, and Susan Abulhawa. Drawing on decolonial and resistance concepts—particularly Palestinian sumud—Hamdi argues that the imaginative construction of Palestine is central to the Palestinian struggle. This interdisciplinary study, rooted in critical theory, postcolonial and decolonial studies, and literary analysis, offers valuable insights for students and scholars of Palestine, Middle East studies, and Arabic literature.

We cover Susan Abulhawa's article published in the Electronic Intifada, and also The Lancet, a peer-reviewed medical journal that replicates much of the same research. We talk about how often Palestinians are not believed when speaking about their own lived experience. Palestinians are constantly gaslit by Zionists and others who seek to invalidate the research and analysis of Palestinian experts.

"Resničnost v Gazi je neskončno hujša od najbolj grozljivih podob, ki jih lahko vidimo na Zahodu," pravi Susan Abulhawa, najuspešnejša pisateljica palestinskega rodu. Več kot 30.000 preštetih smrti kot naraven pojav, katastrofa, ki se kar dogaja z neba od koder države – tudi tiste, ki dobavljajo orožje Izraelu – na reveže kar s padali odmetavajo drobce humanitarne pomoči, da bi si s tem vsaj malo oprali svojo krvavo vest. V prvi vrsti ZDA. In če je po petih mesecih vojne v Gazi (ki se ji v jeziku politične korektnosti, reče konflikt), edina oprijemljiva posledica policijski nadzor na naših mejah, ima stavka zdravnikov in zobozdravnikov po osmih tednih vidne in ne-vidne posledice. Malce cinično pa lahko rečemo, da se je dolgo napovedovala, dolgo pričakovala, zdaj se pod okriljem Fidesa uresničuje: reforma javnega zdravstva. Napenjanje mišic med vlado in Fidesom se bo tako kot kaže nadaljevalo; talci tega merjenja pa ostajamo pacienti in tudi ustavna pravica do zdravstvenega varstva.

Lots happening this week in WRTW Land (which is about 25.6km away from Barbie Land). March is Women's History Month. March 8th is International Women's Day. Marilyn and Rhea both finally watched Barbie (yes, THAT Barbie, which is up for some Oscars later this week). They also just finished watching season 2 of the hit Netflix show AlRawabi School for Girls. They have so many thoughts on all of the above (especially Rhea)...but can they share them all in one episode? Well folks, they do it, because they are what? Women. International women. In this episode of Who Run the Time, Marilyn and Rhea put on their “scathing critic” hats and break down the nonsense, western origins of International Women's Day. They then look at how Barbie and AlRawabi fit this year's IWD theme, “Inspire Inclusion,” and share examples of comedians, journalists, and authors who they feel do a good job of telling authentic stories representing women today.

La guerra in Medio Oriente è anche un conflitto di memorie e narrazioni. Ascoltare le voci palestinesi aiuta a capire il senso di dignità e di umiliazione che genera una visione del mondo, alimenta una resistenza decennale, ispira uno scontro che non sembra permettere mediazioni.

Writer Susan Abulhawa (Mornings in Jenin) talks about getting detained in Egypt trying to get to the Rafah Border Crossing with Global Conscience Convoy. But first New York State Assemblymember for District 36 Zohran Mamdani talks about why he's joining other activists including Cynthia Nixon in hunger striking for a cease fire. Susan Abulhawa is a Palestinian American writer and human rights activist. She is the author of Mornings in Jenin, which was translated into 32 languages and sold more than a million copies, The Blue Between Sky And Water and Against the Loveless World. She is the founder of Playgrounds for Palestine and the executive director of Palestine Writes (https://palestinewrites.org/). Zohran Kwame Mamdani was born and raised in Kampala, Uganda, moving to New York City with his family at the age of 7. A graduate of the NYC Public School System, he attended the Bronx High School of Science and received a Bachelor's Degree in Africana Studies from Bowdoin College. A few years later in 2018, he became naturalized as an American citizen. Prior to representing the 36th Assembly District and its neighborhoods of Astoria, Ditmars-Steinway, and Astoria Heights, Zohran worked as a foreclosure prevention housing counselor, helping low-income homeowners of color across Queens fight off eviction and stay in their homes. It was this job that led him to run for office. After having spent every day negotiating with banks that valued profits over people, he came face-to-face with the reality that this housing crisis – one which predated this pandemic – was not natural to our lives, but instead a choice. A choice that was the consequence of decades of pro-corporate policies enacted across our country as well as our state. Yet, like with any choice, we always have the opportunity to change and Zohran is excited to be a part of that. More than his professional experience, however it was the act of organizing that led to Zohran becoming politically active in the first place. In high school, Zohran co-founded his school's first ever cricket team, which would go on to participate in the Public School Athletic League's inaugural cricket season. This act, though not ostensibly a political one, taught him how coming together with a few like-minded individuals can transform rhetoric into reality. Prior to that, his politics had been expressed primarily through long Facebook posts whose impact was the same as the Yankees' rings from the last 10 years. Taking that lesson with him, he went on to co-found his college's first Students for Justice in Palestine chapter and later organize across the country with different progressive organizations seeking to win national elections as well as expand healthcare coverage. As life took its inevitable turns, with detours in film, rap, and writing, it was always organizing that ensured that the events of our world would not lead him to despair, but to action. ***Please support The Katie Halper Show *** For bonus content, exclusive interviews, to support independent media & to help make this program possible, please join us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/thekatiehalpershow Get your Katie Halper Show Merch here! https://katiehalper.myspreadshop.com/all Follow Katie on Twitter: @kthalps

Happy Thanksgiving Deviants!And this Thanksgiving we are grateful to be back and for authors highlighting the plight of Palestinians in Gaza.This week we read and discuss Susan Abulhawa's 2019 Novel Against the Loveless World.  A poignant story about a Palestinian woman held as a prisoner in an Israeli prison and how she got to be there. Join us as we discuss the beauty of the novel and share our thoughts on the current conflict. Palestine will be free. 

Jutra v Dženinu je pretesljiv, ganljiv in poglobljen romanesken vpogled v nerazrešeno stanje v odnosih med Izraelci in Palestici. Tu so razlage o napačnih predpostavkav o nevidnem prebivalstvu na nikogaršnji zemlji ter tavajočem, preganjanem ljudstvu knjige, ki si želi domovino in zemljo, o terri nullius, puščavi, ki je v resnici rodovitna planjava s kmetijskimi zemljišči ... To je knjiga, ki pove, kako enostransko predelana rekonstukcija zgodovine, preložena odgovornost za nasilje nekje drugje na nedožna ramena, ustanavljanje in širitev umetno vsiljene države, za potrebe umiritve slabe vesti, pripelje do neskončnih vojnih konfliktov ter absurdno spreobnjenih vlogah v zgodovini in v novo nastalih situacijah... Knjiga Jutra v Dženinu je tudi pripoved o iskanju človeških vezi med nasprotujočimi si stranmi, o človečnosti in ljubezni v zgodbi človeštva, ki raste iz nekdaj skupnih korenin. O zgodbi prevajalka knjige Lili Podpara in novinarka Kristina Božič

In this episode of the Speaking Out of Place podcast, Professor David Palumbo-Liu interviews award-winning novelist and activist Susan Albuhawa about a major literary festival she is organizing entitled “Palestine Writes,” which will take place in Philadelphia from Sept 22 to Sept 24.“Palestine Writes” is the only North American literature festival dedicated to celebrating and promoting cultural productions of Palestinian writers and artists. Born from the pervasive marginalization of Palestinian voices in mainstream literary institutions, the festival brings Palestinian cultural workers from all parts of historic Palestine and in exiled diaspora together with peers from other marginalized groups in the United States. Crossing multiple borders dash geographic linguistic and cultural boundaries--writers, artists, publishers, booksellers, scholars, musicians, and thinkers hold conversations about art, literature, and the intersections between culture and power, struggle, politics, climate change, sexuality, human rights, animal rights, food sovereignty, and more. Albuhawa gives us an inside look at the genesis of the festival, and its motivating ethos and politics.Susan Albuhawa is a novelist, poet, essayist, scientist, mother, and activist. Her debut novel Mornings in Jenin, translated into 30 languages, was an international bestseller and is considered a classic in Palestinian literature. Its reach and sales has made Albuhawa the most widely-read Palestinian author. Her second novel, The Blue between Sky and Water, was likewise an international bestseller. Against the Loveless World was published in August 2020 by Simon and Schuster to much acclaim. Albuhawa is the founder of Playgrounds for Palestine, a children's organization dedicated to uplifting Palestinian children.“Palestinians have been facing erasure for decades. There's the physical erasure of our villages, the names of our villages, the erasure of the word Palestine from the map, erasure of our identities. And now there's this kind of colonization of our narratives, of our stories, and our history.And Palestine Writes is part of a counterforce against this new form of colonization. The Zionist colonial narrative has always shifted with shifting wind, depending on what's in vogue at the time. Initially, it was a sort of romantic ending to Europe's genocide of its own Jewish population. And there was this epic myth of "a land without people for a people without land". And of course that was unsustainable.”https://palestinewrites.orgwww.simonandschuster.com/authors/Susan-Abulhawa/165673902www.palumbo-liu.com https://speakingoutofplace.comhttps://twitter.com/palumboliu?s=20Photo credit: Roy VanDerVegt

Chair: Jumana Bayeh Susan Abulhawa, Micaela Sahhar and Saree Makdisi together with Jumana Bayeh explore the power of literature to reimagine what has been distorted in the real world. Nowhere is this distortion more apparent than in relation to Palestine. Can literature reveal what has been suppressed to narrate the history of dispossession endured by generations of Palestinians? More radically, can literature envision and narrate an alternative world that does not yet exist? Event details: Tue 07 Mar, 10:45am on the North Stage

Chair: Tom Wright Susan Abulhawa is a Palestinian-American writer, political activist and author. In her latest award-winning novel, Against the Loveless World, she chronicles the Palestinian struggle, the experience of statelessness and the spirit of resistance. Samah Sabawi is an award-winning playwright and activist whose work is a similarly powerful reckoning with a personal and political history of violent occupation, displacement and identity in the diaspora.

Es la primera vez que leemos un libro escrito por una autora palestina y, como era de esperarse, los resultados fueron excelentes. El azul entre el cielo y el agua por Susan Abulhawa nos cuenta la historia de una familia palestina que es obligada a migrar hacia Gaza cuando su pueblo, Beit Daras, es tomado por tropas sionistas. La novela abarca varias generaciones de la familia y tiene como escenario el incesante conflicto entre Israel y Palestina. Una historia sobre destino, fe, resiliencia, dignidad y libertad que funge, a la vez, como obra literaria y protesta política. Música original por Ing. Ana Aguilar

Author and activist, Susan Abulhawa was born to refugees of the Six Day War of 1967, when her family's land was seized and Israel captured what remained of Palestine, including Jerusalem. She moved to the USA as a teenager, graduated in biomedical science and established a career in medical science. In July 2001, Susan Abulhawa founded Playgrounds for Palestine, a children's organisation dedicated to upholding The Right to Play for Palestinian children. Her much loved books include "Mornings in Jenin", a book of poetry titled "My Voice Sought the Wind", "The Blue Between Sky and Water", and her highly anticipated upcoming work, "Against The Loveless World". Susan is also a signatory to and active participant in the BDS campaign, which calls for an economic and cultural boycott of Israel. In this interview, the two discuss Susan's latest book, the inescapable politicization of Palestinian art, the cultural boycott of Israel and a lot more.

Susan Abulhawa, Palestinian author and activist, talks about her first novel,  the multigenerational story of a Palestinian family, set in the Jenin refugee camp.

"Questa è la storia di una famiglia araba lungo i sessant'anni del conflitto israelo-palestinese. Anche se racconta di tragici lutti e indicibili dolori, questa è una storia d'amore – l'amore tra un contadino e la sua terra; tra una madre e i suoi figli; tra un uomo e una donna; tra amici. Ho messo il mio cuore in ogni pagina di questo romanzo: spero che Ogni mattina a Jenin tocchi i vostri cuori e le vostre menti, che vi ricordi la nostra comune umanità."

Her harrowing experience is hard to hear, but so important to listen to. “The inhumanity is hard to fathom,” she says as she describes images far worse than what we've been told so far about Gaza. “It is a constant state of terror.” We had Susan on to pull back the curtain of censorship held over Palestine, and she reveals the horrifying truth: zip ties tied tight for children's hands, a heat wave turning tents into ovens, an epidemic of flies, mosquitos, and scorpions, grandparents who have lost their entire families, and a story of a house cat wounded and orphaned from his family, barely able to survive. And as the US continues to fund this terror, Susan gives a stark warning: “If we allow this to continue without any accountability or serious consequences, then there will be no more limits for what these fascists will do. And it won't stop with Gaza.” But this week after a just-for-show shipments pause, Biden sent another $1 billion of weapons to Israel. So we asked Susan about the 2024 election and the question that keeps coming up: But won't Trump be worse? Susan responds: “I don't know what's worse than what Biden's done. What can possibly be worse than genocide? What is worse than besieging two and a half million people in a tiny, densely-populated place and then bombing the hell out of them? Watching for seven months a live-streamed genocide and sending billions upon billions every month to this monstrosity to continue this genocide. What could possibly be worse?” Subscribe to hear the full interview with Susan Abulhawa about academic censorship, the policing of pro-Palestine speech, and why she was canceled for her comments about Zelensky. This episode is very hard to hear, but Susan explains that we cannot become desensitized to the horrors our governments are creating. Listen to and share Susan's reporting.
