""If books could save the living, this one would rescue a nation. Sumūd is a vital anthology of writing and art that beats with the heart of Palestinian resilience, creativity, and resistance, much of it astonishingly composed amid an ongoing genocide."" —Moustafa Bayoumi, author of the American Book Award winner How Does It Feel To Be a Problem?: Being Young and Arab in America “This must-read anthology is an important contribution to our struggle for the truth against those who attempt to bury or distort it. Sumūd is full of heart and sets down the record of our time truthfully and eloquently, while serving as an antidote to the live-streamed Israeli horrors and US’s complicity in the genocide.”—Michel Moushabeck, writer, editor, and founder of Interlink Publishing
