Palestine+100 with Isabella Kajiwara

What might Palestine look like in the year 2048 - a century after the tragedies and trauma of what has come to be called the Nakba?

Do you often feel hopeless? Do you find it hard to imagine a better future for our world? So do we – which is why we’re bringing you this 3 part mini-series: World Building and Re-Imagination: How Fiction Can Free Us

Our bookclub – shado’s bookshelf – ran earlier this year, and was a journey through some of the best science fiction, speculative and political fiction of past and present. How can fiction help us imagine and create different worlds? These kind of questions are more necessary now than ever, in a political moment defined by apathy and fear.

We need radical and visionary politics of action and creation!  This mini-series we’ll be taking each book and delving into the stories that can help us imagine otherwise, sharing insights from our book club for those who missed it. Our first book, Palestine+100, is an anthology which poses a question to twelve Palestinian writers: what might your country look like in the year 2048 – a century after the tragedies and trauma of what has come to be called the Nakba?
