We want to not just read about Palestine, but read material by Palestinian theoreticians and scholars. We hope to engage with these thinkers and learn the ways that they have developed the broad tradition of critical thought in pursuit of liberation.

The reading group will last six weeks. We will start with Ghassan Kanafani’s seminal book On Zionist Literature, followed by two very recent publications: the suppressed text on the “Nakba as a Legal Concept” by Rabea Eghbariah, and, to conclude, the recently published Resisting Erasure by Adam Hanieh, Robert Knox, and Rafeef Ziadah.

For further details, please consult the announcement. Alongside the reading group, we are promoting a a fundrasiser---you are in this page! We strongly encourage participants in the reading group and anyone else who has appreciated our work to donate to the PCRF and other campaigns raising funds for life-saving aid in Gaza.

The PCRF is a legally-registered non-political, non-profit, 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization established in 1991 by concerned people to address the medical and humanitarian needs of Palestinian and Arab youths in the Middle East. We have provided thousands of children life-saving care based on their need, not on religion, gender, nationality or sect.

The main objective of the PCRF is to identify and treat every child in the Middle East in need of specialized surgery not available to them locally. We locate, sponsor and run international, volunteer medical missions to the Middle East, in additional to locating free medical care abroad for children who cannot be adequately treated in the Middle East. The PCRF  is the main organization regularly sending injured and sick Arab children to North and South America, the Middle East and Europe for free care that is not available to them there. Since 1991 over 1,000 children have been abroad for millions of dollars of donated care, and over 10,000 have had complex surgery by our visiting medical missions to the region. The PCRF has been awarded the top 4-star rating by Charity Navigator for fiscal management, while being able to treat more kids than any other charity in the Middle East.
