• Surrounded by dubious narratives that reinforce settler colonialism in Palestine, we are placing our “Learning with Palestine” issue (Jan-Feb 2020) in full open-access for everyone to be able to read the deep transnational dialogues between Nick Estes & Maath Musleh, Victoria Adukwei Bulley & Sabrien Amrov, Karim Kattan & Jehan Bseiso, Samia Henni & Mostafa Minawi, and Madiha Tahir & Majd Al-Shihabi, drawing parallels between Palestine and Turtle Island, Pakistan, Algeria, Lebanon, and the Black diaspora.

    Issue: Learning with Palestine - THE FUNAMBULIST MAGAZINE
    https://thefunambulist.net/magazine/27-learning-with-palestine

    Welcome to the 27th issue of The Funambulist. Entitled Learning With Palestine (in opposition to the extractive dimension of learning from Palestine), it constitutes a collaboration with the Palestine Festival of Literature (PalFest). As such, it offers contributions by five PalFest 2019 guests, three PalFest organizers, and four guest Palestinian authors around one question: how to reclaim what colonialism stole? Cities (Mahdi Sabbagh), land (Nick Estes & Maath Musleh), language (Jehan Bseiso & Karim Kattan), interiors (Victoria Adukwei Bulley & Sabrien Amrov), narratives (Samia Henni & Mostafa Minawi), and digital instruments (Madiha Tahir & Majd Al-Shihabi) constitute the core components of the various answers formulated around this question. Throughout this issue, Palestine is simultaneously the site of anti-colonial learning and solidarity, as well as a the source of a productive dialogue with other colonial geographies such as Turtle Island, Algeria, the “Federally Administrated Tribal Areas” (FATA) in Pakistan, or Aotearoa.
