Seattle Arab Feminisms: Then and Now

October 13, 2020 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Seattle in the 1990s saw a critical shift in Arab feminist organizing work. Founding members of Seattle’s Arab Women’s Solidarity Association (AWSA) include Therese Saliba, professor and dean at the Evergreen State College, Nadine Naber, renowned Arab American scholar/activist, and Lena Khalaf Tuffaha, poet, writer and co-founder of IMEU. Join these panelists in a reflective conversation on the history of AWSA and the future of Arab feminism in the arts, media, and political organizing.
