I started reading this with my collective liberation book club before the most recent conflict erupted, and finished it last night, the day Netanyahu formally declared war against Hamas. It was pretty instructive to follow a fellow book club member's advice to compare U.S. coverage of this with other countries, now that this book has enabled me to disentangle Zionism from Jewishness and better see the purposefully hidden entanglements between Zionism, settler-colonialism, and White supremacy. This book is beautiful and necessary, and I learned a great deal while also recognizing I have much more learning to do. I just wish it had had even more poetry!
