They Called Me a Lioness: A Palestinian Girl's Fight for Freedom
Share:
Memoir by Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi, who became a global symbol of resistance after her arrest at age sixteen following a confrontation with Israeli soldiers outside her home in Nabi Saleh. Documents her childhood under military occupation, the repeated arrests and killings of community members, and her eight-month imprisonment. Firsthand testimony to Palestinian youth experience under military rule in the West Bank. Essential reading for researchers and advocates focused on Palestinian youth activism, Israeli military detention of Palestinian children, and firsthand accounts of life under military rule in the West Bank.
