Please join us on Sunday (9 March 2025) at 3:00 PM for the One Book, Many Communities in the Social Hall at All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church.
This is a a Common Read event sponsored by Librarians and Archivists with Palestine and Unitarian Universalists for Justice in the Middle East (Shreveport Chapter).
The book for the 2025 One Book, Many Communities event is They Called Me a Lioness: A Palestinian Girl’s Fight for Freedom by Ahed Tamini and Dena Takruri.
Ahed Tamimi became known worldwide when a video clip of her slapping an Israeli soldier went viral — but her struggle against apartheid and occupation began long before that day — and the historical struggle had gone on longer still.
Kirkus Reviews has called Tamini’s book, “A passionately argued, profoundly empathetic, and deeply informed examination of her country’s occupation.”
Copies of the book will be available at All Souls. The cost is $12.00 or whatever you can pay if you can pay.
Please don’t let money be an obstacle to your reading the book and participating in the discussion.
