I suoi saggi pubblicati sul New Yorker non sono solo resistenza culturale: sono cronaca incisa nella carne, sono memoria che non chiede il permesso di esistere. Abu Toha scrive da poeta e sopravvissuto. Scrive per chi non può più parlare. Scrive con l'urgenza di chi ha perso tutto tranne la voce. “La Gaza che ci lasciamo alle spalle” è un titolo che sembra una resa, ma contiene invece un intero atlante di ciò che si vuole far sparire: un forno d’...

WanderRIP Saleem Al-NaffarSince October 7th, Israel has killed at least thirteen Palestinian poets and writers in Gaza. One of the most renowned is Saleem Al-Naffar. Throughout his life and career he advocated for peaceful resistance and documented the Palestinian struggle to survive.
Hamas’ actions on October 7th and their refusal to hand over the hostages were despicable actions by a corrupt terrorist organisation. But Hamas’ actions were not carried out by the thousands of men, women and children who’ve been killed since October. Hamas is not these thirteen poets and writers. Hamas is not Saleem Al-Naffar.

It’s not a cognitive list-making process, nor is it the self-satisfied reassurance that could result from surveying the relative comfort and privilege of our lives. To feel gratitude, we have to pause and allow our subject to emerge, and then we have to train our attention on presence so that our hearts can naturally enter a state of generous appreciation. Rick Hanson calls this installing the trait. We have to feel into it, again and again.* What keeps us from grat...

Toha’s poems render some of the most moving and telling accounts of how it is to live under blockade and the constant threat and reality of Israeli bombardment. But these are not only “poems that have bombs and corpses, / destroyed houses and shrapnel-covered streets.” They carry also the hope for a future beyond occupation and settler colonial violence, and “imagine a sky only occupied by birds/ an...
