Midcoast Morning
Watermelon Seeds Festival of Literature returns to VIU
More than a dozen authors, poets, profs, and students spoke at a festival aimed at fostering connections between Palestinian and local literature this past weekend. The 2nd annual Watermelon Seeds festival of literature took place at VIU Saturday. It comes on the heels of an event last spring that took place at the Palestinian solidarity encampment that had been set up on campus. Midcoast Morning spoke with a pair of presenters, including former VIU student Sara Kishawi, who spoke about a two year suspension from the school which she recently petitioned the BC Supreme Court to have set aside.
