Chapter (13)
~ Sun-Kissed


The Palestine Issue is an attempt to preserve the memory of Palestine—its people and their voices, memories, and history. It also aims to amplify the joyful crevices; the hopes and dreams that make Palestinian liberation within reach. Fargo Tbakhi says the speculative “is real as dirt”, so, through a tender gaze, we dream this issue to be an attempt to archive—or birth a new archive—for Palestine.
