Susan Abulhawa is a Palestinian American poet and writer, the author of the international bestselling novel, Mornings in Jenin. Her second novel, The Blue Between Sky and Water, was sold in 19 languages before its release. Her latest novel, Against The Loveless World, is a Palestine Book Awards Winner.

Abulhawa is also an activist, and the founder of Playgrounds for Palestine, an NGO upholding the right to play for Palestinian children. She recently launched Aida, a private label olive oil from Palestinian farmers, to raise funds to build more playgrounds.

Susan Abulhawa described why Israel is an apartheid regime, as reported by B’tselem, “advancing and cementing the supremacy of one group—Jews—over another—Palestinians.” Abulhawa will discuss the self-described Jewish state’s allocation of resources--water, housing permits, travel, education, medical care and even COVID vaccines--based on ethnicity.. Even the criminal justice system is starkly different for Palestinians and Israelis, as she notes in her latest book Against the Loveless World. Israel’s lobby ensures that Israel gets a free pass, shutting down criticism of human rights abuses. U.S. taxpayers and readers are beginning to understand they are supporting ethnic cleansing and apartheid.
