My Threatening PoemMy Threatening Poem

"Jailed, abused, censored, defiant - in this passionate memoir, Dareen Tatour recalls her arrest, show trial and imprisonment in Israel in 2016 for the 'crime' of writing and sharing a poem, 'Resist, my people, resist them'. This remarkable memoir, published for the first time in English, describes the routine brutality meted out to Palestinian women prisoners, while issuing a courageous call for solidarity, justice and humanity in the face of an apartheid regime. Ultimately, it is a testimony of the power of languge, poetry and the human spirit to confront and overcome violent authority."
