An amazing poetry book about Palestine and being a queer/trans Palestinian. You can feel the emotion coming through the pages. I need to read more poetry, there is just so much depth to it. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
Notable quotes:
“the caucasity of cis-white zionists to believe they matter more than the world”
“you drew a line when you said all lives matter, Black-on-Black crime, a few bad apples as if the orchard didn’t need torching” this part ATE
“if I was not trans would Palestine be free? no, then how fucking dare you bring it up instead of saying Free Palestine!” also fucking A T E
