Book by Pamela Pennock documents the history of Arab American left-wing political organizing from the 1960s through the 1980s, tracing how Arab Americans built coalitions with Black, Chicano, and antiwar movements and developed an explicitly anti-imperialist politics linking the Palestinian cause to domestic American struggles for racial and social justice. Pennock examines key organizations and their campaigns, recovering a history of Arab American radicalism. Recommended for researchers in social movement history and Arab American studies studying the origins of Palestine solidarity politics in the US, Arab American left organizing in the 1960s–1980s, and the connections between domestic civil rights and international anti-imperialism.
