Israel KILLED Four of This Book’s Authors Before It Was Even Published

“‘We Are Not Numbers’ is... defiance. It’s the Palestinians defiance against occupation. It's the Palestinians defiance against the menacing media, who have always reduced the Palestinians into statistics and numbers.”

Authors of ‘We Are Not Numbers’ Pam Bailey and Ahmed Alnaouq join Mehdi Hasan to discuss Palestinian storytelling, Gaza, and writing as a form of resistance. The book is a collection of essays, poems, and stories documenting everything from daily life in Gaza to what it’s like living in the occupied Strip. Four writers featured in the book were killed by Israel before its publication, as well as one of the project’s co-founders.
