{"product_id":"9781978848924","title":"Unrecognized : A Palestinian Bedouin Feminist in Israel - Mona Al-Habanin","description":"In 1998, when Mona Al-Habanin was twenty-eight years old and pregnant with her sixth child, she stood before a council of al-Naqab Bedouin shaykhs and faced the most difficult decision of her life: give up her children or be responsible for more killings in her tribe. This book tells the extraordinary story of Mona Al-Habanin (b. 1970), the first Bedouin woman to run for elected office in Israel's Negev Desert. Through Mona's life, it illuminates Indigenous Bedouin women's traumas and resilience while documenting a genealogy of contemporary Palestinian Bedouin feminism. It traces her journey from desert tent dwelling through forced dislocation, her community's struggles with violence against women, and her battle for her children-against state-sanctioned tribal justice rooted in British colonial paradigms and Zionist settler-native relations-and to her turn to fierce and irreverent activism, taboo-breaking, and political trailblazing. This book tells the story of an unrecognized community under siege and of a new form of Indigenous feminism that bravely defies the violence of silencing.","brand":"Mona Al-Habanin","offers":[{"title":"266 pages, 14 color images, 5 tables \/ 08\/12\/2026 \/ Biography: general","offer_id":57743602254199,"sku":"9781978848924","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781978848924.jpg?v=1794572541","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781978848924","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
