| It came to our attention that our links to bookshop.org were blocked on the last message. We're trying a different link format in the hopes that it works this time. If not, you can still pre-order on Amazon. Hey there, it's Ryan Grim, I'm reaching out this morning with a reminder/nudge: don't forget to order Refaat Alareer's magisterial collection of poetry and prose, "If I Must Die," which comes out today. Refaat, a Palestinian poet, writer and educator, was assassinated just over a year ago by Israeli forces in a targeted airstrike. The world must not forget Refaat, the world must not forget the Palestinian people. Sending his book to the top of the charts is one small way we can let the world know he is not forgotten. If you can, please order the book today to send a message to his assassins that we haven't forgotten them either. By the end of last week, the book cracked the top 50 best-sellers, an incredible feat for a book of poetry. It remains in the top 100 but we need a push to get it to the top. If you already pre-ordered, consider getting more for your loved ones. At Drop Site News, the independent journalism site I started with Jeremy Scahill, we are buying 535 copies to hand-deliver to each member of the US House and Senate. Order Refaat's book here at Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/a/526/9781682196212 Or here on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3VwzuRE Thanks, Ryan Grim Drop Site News |
