Join Mohammed Mousa for a heart-wrenching performance and reading, My Death Is Not a Song, where poetry becomes a lifeline amid genocide’s shadow. Mousa shares the struggle of crafting poem in crisis, reciting powerful works from the Gaza Poets Society’s second anthology and his upcoming book. Dareen Tatour is a poet, photographer and filmmaker from Palestine. Her work chronicles her experiences and those of Palestinian people. Dareen came to international prominence in 2015 when she was arrested in her home by Israeli security forces and accused of inciting terrorism for writing Resist, My People, Resist Them. www.FringePalestine.com
