They Called Me A Lioness-Ahed Tamimi & Dena Takruri

Born in the occupied West Bank village of Nabi Saleh, Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi rose to global prominence for confronting Israeli soldiers during weekly demonstrations and for a filmed slap of an Israeli soldier who refused to leave her front yard in 2017, resulting in her first imprisonment at the age of sixteen. Her powerful memoir balances anger and hope, despair and determination to offer an inspired call to resistance and for justice for the Palestinian peoples.
