Recs if you like They Called Me a Lioness: A Palestinian Girl's Fight for Freedom...

I am in no way an expert on this topic but me and my reading circle has been meaning to incorporate more Palestine Genocide relevant books in our readings.

Books by Palestinian authors or that highlight Gaza.

books by or about people who have fought against authoritarianism. recommendations, critiques, and discussions welcome!

Writing and voices from outside of the white Western canon. Fiction and Non-fiction with an emphasis in diaspora, decolonization, global history, and resistance narratives from around the world. Features African, Asian, Central American, South American, Caribbean, and Middle Eastern voices.

Began with many recommendations from Jamin Anderson (@jaminanderson__ on Instagram) and has expanded with the help of the Pagebound community.

learning is endless, and far too many people are being oppressed and subjected to violence in this world. just a list of books that shed more light on various marginalized folk from all over the world :) any recs are welcome!

Fiction and nonfiction that question patriarchy, critique power, and imagine new futures for anyone tired of individualistic feminism. From ghosts to economics, magic to memoirs, these books challenge everything, and make you think, feel, and maybe even rage a little.

Non-fiction books about Palestine currently, it's history, and its people. Including poetry. These are important books, and some of them are must-reads to understand the oppression of Palestine. Don't forget them. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

TW: SA

Nonfiction books with personal narratives about survivorhood.

I believe you. You are not alone.

for those who would like to take a break from fiction and gravitate towards more non fiction this holy month. A mixture of islam related and non islam related non fiction books. open to any suggestions 🤗

These are nonfiction recs that may be good for people just wanting to dip their toes into nonfiction. A lot of this focuses on shorter or graphic nonfiction, but also ones with interesting writing or really accessible explanations. Depending on what you read, some of these may be better for you than others. So, take a look and you should be able to find something good!

This list focuses on works by authors of Palestinian origin - poets, novelists, historians, and essayists - whose voices reflect the lived experiences, culture, and resistance of the Palestinian people.

Reading is resistance. Palestine WILL be free!

The books that I've read and loved + the books I'm planning to read soon

per a request after I posted a forum!

Adding books to this list as I read them. Palestine will forever hold a dear place in my heart and I am always striving to hear more of the stories of the people there.

themes: liberation, decolonisation, non white authors, anti zionism, social justice, Palestine

By people who are from (and preferably lived most of their lives in) the Global South. Trying to avoid people paid alot of money by Western institutions.

I'll also include some books by Indigenous authors from the Global North

Often, the most dense or academic books are being recommended as "must reads" for people who care about a certain topic. It may even be a strategy to dissuade people from diving in. Here is a list of books on Palestine that are accessible to someone who is interested in learning more.
