Phyllis Bennis brings her new book Understanding Palestine and Israel to Watermelon Books in West Adams for an afternoon of discussion and Q&A.

Bennis is a fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies, where she has written about Palestine, U.S. foreign policy, and the United Nations for more than 30 years. She helped found the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights and serves as International Adviser to Jewish Voice for Peace. Her work appears in The Nation, The Guardian, and Common Dreams, and she is a regular guest on Democracy Now!, Al Jazeera, and BBC.

The book addresses the questions millions of people started asking after October 7, 2023 — about the history of the conflict, U.S. involvement, international law, and what comes next.

Q&A moderated by Rana Sharif, co-host of Radio Intifada (SWANA Region Radio)on KPFK

Books will be available for purchase. Presented by JVP Los Angeles · Institute for Policy Studies · KPFK 90.7 FM
