TOP News Brief
Editors Skye Arundhati Thomas, Edwin Nasr, and Gloria Habsburg have launched a new "Palestine is Everywhere" platform following their anthology of the same name, according to ArabLit. The digital space will host a series of monthly commissions intended to create an ongoing venue for supporting and amplifying voices from Palestinian writers and those in the diaspora.
The initiative builds on the success of the 2023 anthology, which gathered essays, poetry, and reportage addressing Palestinian experience and solidarity across geographic and temporal boundaries. The platform aims to sustain the editorial work begun in the collection by regularly publishing new commissioned work that expands conversations around Palestine beyond the constraints of a single bound volume.
