Third Place Books in Seattle, WA, will host the official book launch of Before the Flood: A Gaza Family Memoir Across Three Generations of Colonial Invasion, Occupation, and War in Palestine on Tuesday, February 11, at 7:00 PM, featuring Palestinian American author, journalist, and historian Dr. Ramzy Baroud.
Before the Flood: A Gaza Family Memoir
Before the Flood: A Gaza Family Memoir is a profound exploration of Palestinian history and resilience through the personal stories of the author’s family—the al-Badrasawis. Beginning with intimate details of village life in Beit Daras prior to the Nakba, Ramzy Baroud vividly portrays the rich cultural heritage, deeply rooted traditions, and daily struggles faced by ordinary people whose lives were radically disrupted by the violent upheavals and ongoing conflicts driven by British colonialism and Zionist aggression.
Baroud weaves together past and present, illuminating how historical forces shaped the collective consciousness and steadfast resilience of the Palestinian people. His storytelling reveals not only the harsh realities of occupation, displacement, and loss but also the extraordinary courage, faith, and solidarity that underpin a powerful and enduring spirit of resistance, encapsulated in what the author refers to as the Palestinian “longue durée.” Ultimately, Baroud aims to humanize and reclaim Palestinian narratives from distorted portrayals, highlighting their perseverance and the universal quest for justice and liberation.
Gaza Rising: Voices from the Rubble
Drawing on the voices of Gaza’s own intellectuals, journalists, doctors, teachers, artists, and community leaders, Gaza Rising: Voices from the Rubble highlights the resilience of a people determined to endure despite overwhelming devastation.
Since October 7, 2023, Gaza has faced its most catastrophic assault yet, with the destruction extending far beyond homes to hospitals, schools, civil institutions, and cultural life itself. By late 2024, most of the Strip had been rendered uninhabitable, leaving nearly the entire population displaced. Yet even amid the systematic targeting of every sector of society, Gaza’s people continue to assert their existence, raising a profound question: can a people so deeply rooted ever truly be erased?
Our Vision for Liberation: Engaged Palestinian Leaders & Intellectuals Speak Out
Our Vision for Liberation: Engaged Palestinian Leaders & Intellectuals Speak Out aims to challenge several strata of the current Palestine discourse that have led to the present dead end: the American pro-Israel political discourse, the Israeli colonial discourse, the Arab discourse of purported normalization, and the defunct discourse of the Palestinian factions.
Here, engaged Palestinian leaders and intellectuals, those who have been actively involved in generating an ongoing Palestinian discourse on liberation, take into account the parameters of their struggle. Drawing on their own personal experiences as educators, community leaders, spiritual leaders, artists, historians, human rights activists, political prisoners, and the like, they address what has been and what must next be done.
The Last Earth:A Palestinian Story
Spanning decades and encompassing war, mass exodus, epic migrations and the search for individual and collective identity, The Last Earth tells the story of modern Palestine through the memories of those who have lived it.
Ordinary Palestinians have rarely narrated their own history. In this groundbreaking book, acclaimed author Ramzy Baroud draws on dozens of interviews to produce vivid, intimate and beautifully written accounts of Palestinian lives – in villages, refugee camps, prisons and cities, in the lands of their ancestors and in exile. Baroud’s empathetic and lyrical approach reveals new human dimensions of the Palestinian saga, telling it as it has never before been told.
These Chains Will Be Broken: Palestinian Stories of Struggle and Defiance in Israeli Prisons
Since 1967, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been imprisoned by Israel, yet their voices are rarely heard. Western media depicts them as “terrorists,” while human rights narratives often cast them as helpless victims.
These Chains Will Be Broken challenges both views through firsthand testimonies that center Palestinian humanity, resilience, and political agency. Rather than cataloging abuses, the stories reveal imprisonment as a site of collective resistance that transcends factional divides. Palestinian prisoners embody a shared struggle against colonialism, apartheid, and military occupation.
L’ultima terra. Una storia palestinese
In L’Ultima Terra, Una storia palestinese, Ramzy Baroud ricostruisce la storia della Palestina attraverso le voci di chi l’ha vissuta in prima persona. Il libro rompe con la storiografia tradizionale per dare spazio alle testimonianze di rifugiati, famiglie sradicate e prigionieri politici, trasformando la memoria individuale in una narrazione collettiva.
Fondendo storia orale, racconto personale e analisi politica, L’Ultima Terra sfida i discorsi dominanti che hanno a lungo negato ai palestinesi il diritto di raccontarsi. È un’opera che restituisce centralità all’esperienza umana della Nakba, dell’esilio e della resistenza, affermando che la storia palestinese non è solo perdita, ma anche dignità, sumoud e legame con la terra.
Notre Vision pour la Libération: Des Personnalités Palestiniennes s’Expriment
Notre Vision pour la Libération vise à remettre en question les récits entremêlés qui ont conduit à l’impasse actuelle : le discours politique pro-israélien américain, le discours colonial israélien, le discours arabe de la prétendue normalisation et le discours défunt des factions palestiniennes. Aucun ne promeut la justice, aucun n’a apporté de solution, aucun n’est de bon augure pour l’une ou l’autre des parties concernées.
Educateurs, responsables communautaires, chefs spirituels, artistes, historiens, militants des droits humains, prisonniers politiques, journalistes, médecins, trente personnalités s’appuient sur leurs expériences pour retracer ce qui a été fait et ce qui devrait être réalisé à l’avenir, d’une manière qui reflète non seulement les aspirations des Palestiniens, mais aussi leur vision de ce qui est possible.
Résistant en Palestine: Une histoire vraie de Gaza
Ligne de front dans le conflit entre Israël et les Palestiniens, Gaza est systématiquement dépeinte comme un lieu de violence et de terreur. Ramzy Baroud explore la vie quotidienne des habitants de cette région tourmentée, nous donnant à comprendre ce qui est en danger dans chaque nouvelle explosion de violence.
Son livre raconte la fascinante histoire de son père : chassé de son village et parqué dans un camp de réfugiés, il a courageusement combattu l’occupation tout en élevant sa famille.
Ce récit vivant et sans concession nous révèle des êtres humains complexes qui font de la Bande de Gaza bien plus qu’un simple territoire contesté.
