You know that bullshit thing where Zionist apologists say where are Palestine's non-violent protesters (their Gandhi or their MLK)? Well, Bassem Tamimi has been practicing non-violent protest all his life and oh look, he is also subjected to indefinite administrative detention.

Today marks the release of Nasser Abu Srour's prison memoir THE TALE OF A WALL. Imprisoned since 1994 and with no hope of release, Srour's memoir is a soaring existential inquiry that refuses to be bound by the walls of his captors. Encouraging to see major publishing houses…
Israel killed my sister and all her children while sheltering in my home in October. Today they have bombed her husbund’s home. This home sheltered over 70 people. 7 flats.
On May 7, I'll be reading here with friends and fellow writers to raise funds for @WeAreNotNumbers, a youth-led nonprofit in Gaza that shares Palestinian stories. Join us. For tickets: eventbrite.com/e/freedom-to-w…

@prem_thakker In the spring of 1985 we padlocked the front doors of Hamilton Hall, renamed it Mandela Hall, and encamped on the steps for more than two weeks. Columbia divested from South Africa in the fall of 1985.
The wife of Palestinian journalist Salem Abu Tayyur bids farewell to her husband and child, both killed by Israel with American missiles.
We want to introduce you to some young poets in Gaza. Through the genocide, they have not stopped writing. Most have been made homeless. All want to escape. They need all of our help, so we want to tell you about them. 🧵
Bassem Tamimi, father of Ahed Tamimi, is still in Israeli prison after serving 6 months under administrative detention. He was supposed to be released yesterday, but an Israeli military court extended his detention another 6 months. He hasn't been charged with anything.
Writers are revolting against @PENamerica’s leaders for failing to stand up for Gaza, aligning with U.S. foreign policy, and creating a toxic workplace. CEO @SuzanneNossel’s concern for Israel is clear. But her spouse David Greenberg’s anti-Palestinian views are less known 🧵

It’s been an honor to work with the principled writers & translators withdrawing their works from consideration for the PEN America Literary awards, a herculean effort for everyone involved. Many of them have signed a letter, published here: lithub.com/the-pen-awards…
Proud to add my little grain of sand.
As of this morning 29 writers & translators nominated for PEN Awards have withdrawn - including 9 of 10 fellow Jein/Stein nominees, who asked to no longer be considered for PEN’s most lucrative prize. We sent a letter to leadership today explaining why: lithub.com/the-pen-awards…
I can’t fully express how grateful I feel to be in community with so many writers willing to take the kind of stands and risks that don’t come with many rewards. Whether they chose to withdraw or donate their winnings, every choice shows PEN how much this fight means to us.
More power to all the writers here who’ve set aside the chance to win prizes both prestigious and lucrative from @PENamerica in the name of solidarity with Palestine.

In 6 months of abusive messages from strangers and implicit threats from senior figures in our industry, my 3 bosses at @lithub & @groveatlantic (who have all been publishing 🇵🇸 voices for years) have never been anything but steadfast in their support, in both public and private.
Hi Jenny, Thx for the kind words. I do know about the $100K. This # feels insignificant in comparison to your CEO's $500K salary and PEN America's $43 million in assets. The prize you longlisted me for is a $75K. Surely, any Palestinian writer could use this money more than I.
@CAMONGHNE I love your work. I hope someday you will find PEN’s honors in alignment with your passions and your advocacy. I wanted to ask if you knew PEN has called for a cease fire, and that we have donated $100,000 to help Palestinian writers in Gaza. We must stand by all writers.
Ep. 91 How does the government of Israel treat Christians? In the West, Christian leaders don’t seem interested in knowing the answer. They should be. Here’s the view of a pastor from Bethlehem.
