Prisons are a focal site for understanding Palestine and the wider Palestinian condition. Imprisonment as a central tactic helps us see how Israel turns Palestinian land and lives into spaces to criminalise, while using the prison itself as a space of brutal experimentation and extermination.

Join us for our upcoming online conversation with Lena Meari and Basil Farraj, who will be unpacking the role of the colonial carceral regime, the specificity of Israel as a carceral state and its shifting tactics within prisons, how gender and sexuality are deployed in prisons, and the centrality of prisoners and sumud within the Palestinian struggle.

Our workshop is free and open to all. Share with your friends, classmates, and colleagues. Link in bio.
