Ramzy Baroud World Tour Continues: South Africa

• August 30, 2019, 6:01 pm

Dear Readers,

I am embarking on the fourth leg of my world tour, which this time will take me to South Africa.

I will be in South Africa from September 15 to September 25 on a tour to discuss my latest book, The Last Earth: A Palestinian Story (London: Pluto Press, 2018). I will be speaking in various cities across the country.

The book tells the stories of dispossession, exile, and loss of ordinary Palestinians – but it is also about hope and resistance in modern Palestine.
