No Land To Stand On: Protest, Palestine And Being Unfree In America

by Mahmoud Khalil

'I did nothing wrong. I just told the truth.'When Mahmoud Khalil was illegally seized from his New York apartment by American Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officers and imprisoned in a detention centre in Jena, Louisiana, the man who had been the face of the student protests against the war in Gaza became the face of the Trump administration's lawlessness and utter contempt for civil liberties.Locked in a cold jail cell miles from his family, Mahmoud was forced to miss the birth of his first child. Like the other detained immigrants, he experienced firsthand the real and immediate threat to America's freedom of expression under the Trump administration. Through it all, he refused to be silenced, his voice and message unwavering: end the genocide in Palestine.At a time of unending catastrophe for oppressed peoples, and a time when democratic freedom is in in dire jeopardy, Mahmoud's memoir is a testament to the strength of the human spirit, and to the hope and moral clarity we can hold on to in the darkest times.
