Learn some history, see some important photos, reset your nervous system.
I apologize in advance for the audio not always syncing up with the video--my tools and skills are limited, but I did my best. I also apologize for my ignorance of Arabic pronunciation, and for any mistakes I may have made in characterizing these photos. At one point, I referred to the G-cide as a "war," which it's not, and to Occupiers as "settlers," and those are both examples of rhetoric I'm trying to change. I also can't hear super clear, but I think I called Arthur Balfour, "Alfred." My bad!
My summary of Rashid Khalidi's THE HUNDRED YEARS WAR ON PALESTINE is here: youtube.com/watch?v=BqXMe0idZU8&t=5s

After finishing that series, I sat down with the author for a 90-minute conversation, hosted by Librarians and Archivists with Palestine. Watch our conversation here: youtube.com/watch?v=Y9z6SdKDvi8
I learned a lot over the course of filming this project, including how to correctly pronounce the author's last name! So I apologize for my earlier failed attempt!
Obviously, each of these short chapter summaries had to leave out a ton of important information, so my hope is people will use these as a starting point or review tool, and it will encourage them to pick up Khalidi's book and read it in full!
Buy a copy of the paperback from bookshop.org here: bookshop.org/p/books/the-hundred-years-war-on-palestine-a-history-of-settler-colonialism-and-resistance-1917-2017-rashid-khalidi/230482

1. Sign up to join: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfiRFONzaklfnJXc5Wegm2P8SQ9n5cN5ChkxFz6-PRkZV8Low/viewform
2. Select a trans org or individual to support. A good national option is the Trans Health Legal fund, run by the Transgender Law Center. Me, I’m gonna raise for Tony’s Place, my local trans youth homeless shelter. Maybe you have a trans friend who’s trying to raise funds to flee their red state or get affirming surgery—feel free to raise for an individual! We love mutual aid here!
3. *Optional* Set up a fundraising site. Pledge It, is a free site that lets you set up a readathon type fundraiser, but you have to get the money and the deposit it. If that makes you nervous, GoFundMe lets directly link to big national charities like the Transgender Law Center so you don’t touch the money at all. But. If you ARE taking peoples’ money and then donating it? In your wrapup video, you are posting receipts of you depositing their money in the correct charity. Don’t be a grifter.
4. Start making content! Using the hashtag #transrightsreadathon. Announce your participation to your followers! Feel fre to stitch this video to do so. Share your reading goal and your fundraising goal and your TBR! Tell people where and how you want them to donate. And if you’re collecting money, how you’ll be accountable to them about donating it. Recommend trans books!
5. Search the hashtag and interact with other people participating in the readathon so we can boost visibility! We have 11 days until the reading starts—let’s use this time to make sure EVERYONE on booktok hears about the readathon before it begins!

About GUN ISLAND (from Goodreads): goodreads.com/book/show/42436500-gun-island
Bundook. Gun. A common word, but one which turns Deen Datta's world upside down.
A dealer of rare books, Deen is used to a quiet life spent indoors, but as his once-solid beliefs begin to shift, he is forced to set out on an extraordinary journey; one that takes him from India to Los Angeles and Venice via a tangled route through the memories and experiences of those he meets along the way. There is Piya, a fellow Bengali-American who sets his journey in motion; Tipu, an entrepreneurial young man who opens Deen's eyes to the realities of growing up in today's world; Rafi, with his desperate attempt to help someone in need; and Cinta, an old friend who provides the missing link in the story they are all a part of. It is a journey which will upend everything he thought he knew about himself, about the Bengali legends of his childhood and about the world around him.
Gun Island is a beautifully realised novel which effortlessly spans space and time. It is the story of a world on the brink, of increasing displacement and unstoppable transition. But it is also a story of hope, of a man whose faith in the world and the future is restored by two remarkable women.

** In the original cut, I misgendered Xiran Zhao who goes by they/them pronouns. It should now be edited to cut out those moments! I am so sorry! As a nonbinary author, I should KNOW to always, always double-check an author's pronouns before filming, even if you think you know them. Because you never know if someone might've come out since you last looked! It's just good practice.**

I used Tarot Card readings to develop the four main characters of the WIP I just completed, THE FREE PEOPLES' VILLAGE. Here, I'll show you some of my notes from those readings and demonstrate how to do a tarot reading to flesh out a character.

Like I said in the video, this isn't me "starting drama." When someone acts inappropriately to you and violates your boundaries, THEY'RE starting drama. They're creating a narrative about you without your consent. So this is me making crystal-clear what my boundaries are, and what my narrative is.
The conversation about inappropriate touching starts about 14 minutes in.
