Comma Press presents

Voices of Resilience

Sat 14 Jun

An evening reflecting upon the resilience of Palestinians in Gaza.

The performance includes extracts from the diaries of four women trapped in the Strip throughout: Nahil Mohana, Sondos Sabra, Ala’a Obaid, Batool Abu Akleen, as well as Atef Abu Saif.

Presented by Comma Press, this is a performance of testimonies from people experiencing what the ICJ, UN and Amnesty International have described as a plausible or probable case of genocide.

Diary entries will be accompanied by traditional Arabic music performed by Ahmed Adnan and a visual score by Gazan filmmaker Hossam Abo Shamallah. Readers will include Sama Rantisi, Zarah Sultana MP, Mohammed Ghalayini and special guests.

The event will be followed by a Q&A.
