Greater than the Sum of Our Parts

'An inspiring call to action that deconstructs the many oppressive systems we currently find ourselves struggling against, and shows us the way forward'

-- Adam Horowitz, Executive Editor at Mondoweiss

'The book our movements deserve. Crafted from decades of transnational activism, Nada Elia brilliantly weaves together the challenges of our time and the political frameworks necessary to overcome them'

-- Noura Erakat, Associate Professor at Rutgers University, New Brunswick in Africana Studies and the Program in Criminal Justice

'I am so grateful that a book such as Greater Than the Sum of Our Parts finally exists! Reading it felt like drinking cold water on a parched day. The writing is bold and brave, the analysis clear-sighted and unflinching. And yet somehow, on top of all this, the book is full of heart, fierce love and radical empathy. A must read'

-- Jen Marlowe, author of 'I Am Troy Davis' and 'The Hour of Sunlight'

'Offers a new map altogether: a map of survival, possibility, and hope. Like the Palestinian struggle for freedom itself, this map is collective, collaborative, built on and for radical love'

-- Sherene Seikaly, Associate Professor, Department of History, University of California, Santa Barbara

'A compelling, even irresistible case for moving beyond rights and statehood for Palestine to a truly decolonial future. Grounded in the analysis of actual struggles, the book is informed by Elia's commitment to abolitionist feminist practice, which reorients the vision of what a post-Zionist Palestine could look like in crucial ways. Defined by solidarity rather than exceptionalism, this is a truly necessary book'

-- David Lloyd, Department of English, University of California, US

-- ‘Palestine Chronicle’

‘Probes us to ask: where do we believe knowledge lies? What does it mean to practise solidarity across differences? How can we work to build a liberated future? Read the book, ask yourself these questions, and then organise to answer them – our liberation depends on it.’

-- ‘Red Pepper’

‘A book of hope and purpose … an important contribution to the Palestinian fight for self-determination’

-- ‘Bella Caledoni
