Colin talks with Jennifer Lynn Kelly, author of “Invited to Witness: Solidarity Tourism Across Occupied Palestine” to learn about the promise and pitfalls of solidarity tourism. On the one hand, solidarity tourism can be used to imagine and build a just future. On the other hand, it often recreates or reinforces structures of colonial inequality.

Kelly also talked in depth about the following:
Sophia Azeb: “Who Will We Be When We Are Free?” The Funambulist.
Dean Spade: “Impossibility Now: A Trans Politics Manifesto.”
Tanya Habjouqa: “Occupied Pleasures.”
Sophia Stamatopolou-Robbins: “The Joys and Dangers of Solidarity in Palestine: Prosthetic Engagement in an Age of Reparations.” The New Centennial Review.
And Colin mentioned:
Dina Matar and Venetia Porter eds. “Archiving Gaza in the Present.”
In our conversation, Kelly was diligent to note several people who have supported her work. Since not all of those shoutouts made it into the final edit, we’ll note that she credited Barbara Harlow, Ann Laura Stoller, and Ella Shohat.
