WWA Presents: Language as a Cultural Resistance

Join us for Meeting No. 5 of the 2026-2027 workshop!

This week we’ll dive into Mahmoud Darwish’s translated works. Through close reading and guided writing, we’ll explore how language, dialect, and code-switching can become expressions of authenticity, intimacy, and resistance.

📚 Mandatory readings: In Her Absence, I Created Her Image by Mahmoud Darwish If I Were Another by Mahmoud Darwish
