Our next #NAAPReadsBilBeit is going to be extra special - the author, @ZahraHankir, will be joining us to discuss her book "Our Women on the Ground" on Wednesday, December 17 @ 7PM EST via Zoom. 😌📚
"Our Women on the Ground" highlights the experiences of 19 Arab women journalists reporting on conflicts that often hit close to home.
We couldn't wait any longer - for our inaugural #NAAPReadsBilBeit meeting, we're reading "The Yaacoubian Building" by Alaa Al Aswany.

Happy #PrideMonth! To my queer Arab cousins around the world: I see you & stand shoulder to shoulder with you. Some of us are out, some of us are not (and that’s OK). We exist, we have pride in our culture. That makes us powerful✊ (video: @ArtQuuerHabibi)
