A bit dry, but very important information. I like how the author included his own experiences and family history in the narrative.

Great introduction to the history of Palestinian resistance with an emphasis on global engagement, policy, and media coverage. Mostly read like a history book, but the addition of direct experiences recounted by the author helped demonstrate the actual effects of policy and politics. I particularly appreciated the dialogue on the influence that US citizens have, it gives me hope that better days are coming for Palestinians with this new wave of American media attention

Essential reading!!! This was really my first foray into learning about the history of Palestine, and I think the onslaught of information made it hard for me to stay engaged at times. I might revisit once I’m more familiar with the subject matter. From the river to the sea 🇵🇸

Absolutely required reading on the formation and history of Israel and it's continued colonization and subjugation of Palestine. 

From river to sea, Palestine will be free. 🇵🇸

Outstanding. If you're short on time, even just the book's conclusion is a worthwhile and helpful primer on the Palestinian/Israeli situation.
