“Israel’s annihilation of Gaza, provisioned by Western democracies… sought from the very beginning ‘to make the entire Gaza Strip uninhabitable, and to debilitate its population to such a degree that it would either die out or seek all possible options to flee the territory’” “I write out of that guilt – a broad human condition after Israel’s livestreamed mass-murder spree in the Middle East– and the obligation that the living have to the innocent dead I also write with the faith that there is such a thing as solidarity between human beings as human beings” Mishra’s solidarity has already cost him – he describes how the lecture that would turn into this book cost him a high profile event at the Barbican, was cancelled once they realised what he was going to say, and his column at Bloomberg. I can see why people don’t want you to engage with this. You won’t be the same after. It’s *the* most essential thing you can read right now “The World After Gaza: A History”, by Pankaj Mishra Published @fernpress_ @penguinukbooks Out today
An unimaginable land grab, turning ancestral lands into a luxury tourism destination, displacing the population and turning them into accessories to white adventure? Trump’s horrific Gaza vision is well tried and tested It’s what the British did, and continue to do, in Kenya, to take one of many examples Africa Rising #knowyourhistory #documentary #film #colonialism #crimes #land #theft #Trump

🧡 After hosting the Grammys on Sunday night, we’re looking back at our incredible FANE events with Trevor Noah last Autumn! Stepping away from the spotlight, Trevor indulged us in an evening of conversation about his new children’s book: Into the Uncut Grass. Alongside @afuahirsch, the comedian and author delved deep into the underappreciated genre, and described why he believes that children’s books contain the perfect combination of silliness, meaningfulness, excitement and adventure. Just like the ‘mini-bibles’ by Roald Dahl he collected, or the guiding light of Aslan throughout his young life, Trevor shared how he hopes his new book will speak to readers across generations. 📸 Credit: @capturedbycorinne
