Conflict Kitchen: reading and fundraiser for Gaza Soup Kitchen

at Southern Exposure - SOEX (6:30-8:00pm)
Join us for an evening of Palestinian food and a community reading on the occasion of the San Francisco launch of There Is No Life on Other Planets (2024). Originally published in 2014 by Conflict Kitchen, the book features interviews with Palestinian children living in the West Bank and Gaza. Ten years later, the book has been republished alongside eight new interviews, with some of the same children who are now young adults currently living in Gaza.

All new interviews were conducted in Gaza by Abeer A. in May of 2024, nearly seven months into a humanitarian catastrophe that has repeatedly displaced 2.2 million and killed an estimated 55,000 people, more than half women and children.

Data references, UN data and Gaza Health Ministry via PBS and UNRWA

The event is free and open to the public. All funds raised from the sale of the book will be donated to support the Gaza Soup Kitchen, a network of kitchens providing hot meals and clean drinking water to communities in Gaza.

The event is co-presented by Southern Exposure (SoEx) and KADIST.
