Queer Palestinian Solidarity Work: Coalition, Encampments, and Affective Activisms

We sat down with Deborah Cowen and Natalie Kouri-Towe to talk about their long-standing involvement with queer/Palestine liberation and solidarity work. We were interested in the connections between Queers Against Israeli Apartheid (QuAIA) and the Palestinian solidarity encampments/anti-genocide actions happening across university campuses. Below is a portion of this conversation, edited for continuity and clarity. We are deeply appreciative to both Deb and Natalie for taking the time to speak with us.
