informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

The first half of the book consists of dialogues, which are very accessible. Each chapter clearly illuminates chronologically the facts of the history and genocide of the Palestinian people by Israel. FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA, in our lifetime!!

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

disclaimer: I don’t really give starred reviews. I enjoy most books for what they are, & I extract lessons from them all. Everyone’s reading experiences are subjective, so I hope my reviews provide enough information to let you know if a book is for you or not.

This provides very helpful context on the reality of Palestine under Israeli occupation. It was an accessible read for me on a very important topic & I highly recommend it if you need to be further disillusioned of the propaganda that we have been force-fed in Western media and history books. 

FREE PALESTINE! 🇵🇸🍉🙏🏽
