Rest in My Shade

Meer over het boek

Rest in My Shade is a poetic story about displacement, identity and loss recited by an ancient olive tree. Rest in My Shade features art created in various media by Palestinian artists living around the world including Suleiman Mansour, Nabil Anani, Ismail Shammout, Tamam Al-Akhal, Steve Sabella, Michael Hallak, and more. Millions of people are being uprooted, separated from their families, and risk losing their culture as a result of war, poverty, repression, and climate injustice. Rest in My Shade is a tool for building understanding, compassion and dialogue. Together, we can build a world in which we can all live without fear, move freely, value and share the cultures and traditions that make us who we are, and feel dignity and acceptance everywhere.For more information, see www.restinmyshade.com.
