This episode of The Dig is brought to you by our listeners who support us at patreon.com

and by Haymarket Books, which has loads of great left-wing titles, perfect,

for dig listeners like you. One that you might like is Palestine, a socialist introduction,

edited by Sumea Awad and Brian Bean. Palestine, a socialist introduction,

systematically tackles a number of important aspects of the Palestinian struggle for

liberation, contextualizing it in an increasingly polarized world and offering a socialist

perspective on how full liberation can be won. Through an internationalist anti-imperialist lens,

this book explores the links between the struggle for freedom in the United States,

and that in Palestine, and beyond. It examines both the historical and contemporary trajectory

of the Palestine Solidarity Movement in order to glean lessons for today's organizers,

and compellingly lays out the argument to that in order to achieve justice in Palestine,

the movement has to take up the question of socialism, regionally, and internationally.

As Nura Erakat says of the book, quote,

the volume provides the reader with an internationalist framework, defined as a commitment to anti-imperialism,

and uses it to place Palestine into local, regional, and global historical context.

The book connects the past to our present, and, despite the daunting odds before us,

sustains a commitment to a socialist future where all of us are free, because all of us are free.

Palestine, a socialist introduction, edited by Sumea Awad and Brian Bean, out now from Haymarket Books.

Welcome to the Dig, a podcast from Jacobin Magazine. My name is Daniel Denver,

and I'm broadcasting from Providence, Rhode Island.

This is the conversation about Palestine that I needed to have right now,

and I had it with Nura Erakat and Ariel Angel. I do think and hope that you'll find it useful.
