We cannot speak about women’s empowerment, or women’s rights, without acknowledging the plight of Palestinian women undergoing genocide and unprecedented circumstances that constitute femicide. However, the history of Palestinian women has transcended the role of a victim. They are revolutionaries, resistance fighters, intellectuals and an integral part of the Palestinian road to liberation.

In conversation with our panelists we hope to speak about the hypocrisy of the western world and White feminism, the powerful role of Palestinian women, and how their resistance has always been at the core of Palestinian history.

Anna Younes is a German Palestinian scholar of race critical theories, using psychoanalytic and settler-/de/-colonial approaches; alongside her academic work she is fighting censorship and digital surveillance in Germany.
