Y M Abdel-Magied, Molly Crabapple & Hannah Lilith Assadi: Global Solidarities image
Synopsis:

What shapes can solidarities take in these times we live in? Join Sana Goyal, editor and publishing director of Wasafiri, for a conversation on connection and public and private revolutions with Y M Abdel-Magied, whose novel At Sea offers a searing takedown of Big Oil; Molly Crabapple, who tells the story of the Jewish Bund movement in Here Where We Live Is Our Country; and Hannah Lillith Assadi, whose Paradiso 17 is loosely based on her father’s exile from Palestine after the Nakba. This event is presented in partnership with Wasafiri.
