✊🏼*Event with Palestinian-Italian author, Sabrin Hasbun (@sabrinhasbun), ft. Newcastle Palestine Solidarity Campaign (@newcastlepsc), 24th July ✊🏼*πŸ‰

πŸ“šOn Thurs 24th July we have the honour of welcoming Palestinian-Italian author Sabrin Hasbun at The Bound in Whitley Bay (@forumbookscorbridge), to talk about her memoir Crossing.

πŸ”— Tickets in bio and stories

❀️ Crossing tells the love story of Anna, Sabrin’s Italian mother, and Rami, her Palestinian father. It is about the falling in love and being a family between Palestine and Italy. But it’s also about history of resistance: to Italian fascism and Israeli apartheid and occupation. Ultimately it’s about how to spend our brief time alive as courageously as possible.

✊🏼 Newcastle Palestine Solidarity Campaign will also be on stage, talking to us about how we can translate Sabrin’s story into real life solidarity with Palestine here in the North East.

The event will be hosted by author and organiser Yara Rodrigues Fowler. Yara and Sabrin organise together in the pro-Palestine book worker collective, Fossil Free Books (@fossilfreebooks)
