Palestinians must share their stories, in their own words, on their own terms, in the minds of all, through any means necessary. If we don’t tell our stories, they will either be covered up, or someone else will tell the wrong version for us. Help us deliver the message. We will donate a book copy on your behalf to a library, to a school, or to a university. You have a chance to donate a book by contributing to our campaign.
