Daghang salamat, UP Literary Society and Aklat Alamid for organizing the Mindanao Book Workers for Palestine forum! We're proud to co-organize this with our friends from Nagkahiusang Magsusulat sa Cagayan de Oro, Bidadali Press, Handala Project, and the SALAM Palestine network. It was a sobering discussion on the Palestinian-led boycott of the Frankfurt Book Fair (FBM) and why it matters, the connections between the Palestinian struggle and the struggles of Moro and indigenous peoples in Mindanao, and more ways to work in solidarity with the people of Palestine even beyond the FBM. Uli nami, see you all at the next event! 🇵🇸
