from Shadow and Light · host Keyari Page and Be the change. Media Network

We are entering the many war zones of Palestinian poetry, tracing its power from the catastrophe of the Nakba in 1948 to the ongoing struggle today. This episode showcases the powerful words of poets like Fadwa Tuqan and Samih al-Qasim, whose verses defy suppression. And how the ongoing struggle has never faded away, but Palestine will rise from the rubble.
