Celebrating Women's History Month by celebrating the GREAT Palestinian-American POET Nathalie Handal

"I have navigated borders most of my life. Dislocation has not been an easy place to exist in. It is a place where the dark is suspended around me all the time but I have also found in this exilic journey, windows of sensual flame. Today, I feel deeply connected to the world. I am Palestinian but I am also French, Latina, American. People think that fragments cannot be whole. I don't view it that way. I cannot separate myself from all that is me. Just like I cannot separate myself from the world - being attentive to the life-beats around us is what is most divine in us." "Language for a New Century": An interview with Nathalie Handal
