- **Event Name**: Will Not Let Die: A Bilna'es Book Launch
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 01 May, 2026 at 08:00 pm – Fri, 01 May, 2026 at 10:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: with Nasser Abourahme, Adam HajYahia, and Jasbir K. PuarAbout this EventIn 2017, the critical theorist Jasbir Puar published The Right to Maim: Debility, Capacity, Disability. While the work offered a complex and rigorous anti-capitalist account of disability, as well as a scathing analysis of Israeli biopolitical policy, the book cohered a political logic in writing before it was visibly evident on the ground, and as such, the work has had something of a delayed reception in Palestinian contexts.In 2026, the adisciplinary publishing platform Bilna’es is addressing this delay by releasing a new publication — “Will Not Let Die”: Debilitation and Inhuman Biopolitics in Palestine — that includes the last chapter of Puar’s book alongside the first Arabic translation of the text, a new preface from Puar reflecting on her work from within this moment of genocide, an introduction by Nasser Abourahme reflecting on the book’s stakes in the present, and illustrations by Xaytun Ennasr. For this release event at The Poetry Project, Puar and Abourahme will be joined by Adam HajYahia for a conversation about the text, translation, the right to maim, the temporality of genocide, and living in death.Accessibility InformationIndoors, masks required, livestream, CART, amplification, seating, and a wheelchair accessible, all gender bathroom provided.This reading will take place indoors in the Parish Hall at St. Mark's Church (located in the back of the church, with the entrance to the right of the main Sanctuary doors) and seating is provided.
