Registration is open for our 5th “Storytime” with Palestinian beekeepers on May 23rd at 9.30pm (Palestime time EEST), 8.30 pm CET, 2.30 pm EST. To register visit: combcutters.xyz/​solidarity

This Storytime will hold some familiar pieces and some newness as well. We’ll hear from our colleagues in Gaza and the West Bank about daily life on the ground, as well as from Bees, Land, and Liberation members who recently returned from a solidarity beekeeping trip in Palestine.

For this Storytime, we have invited friends from around the globe to host local watch parties and fundraising events - to gather, connect and hold these stories collectively. We will update the list of local watch parties here, as they are confirmed.

Whether you are joining us from your own space or gathering with others at a local event, your presence is felt & appreciated. These are stories that must be shared, voices that must be heard. We all have something to learn from from the resistance and resilience of Palestinian people, and inspiration to take in our journey towards collective liberation for the people of Palestine & beyond.

This Storytime will have simultaneous interpretation available in Arabic, Spanish, Haitian Creole, English & American Sign Language.

Confirmed in person listening parties/fundraising events in:
LA, California
San Diego, California
The Inland Empire, California
Troy, NY
Gainesville, FL

If you are interested in hosting a watch party, email us at beeslandandliberation@gmail.com to coordinate!

As always, we are fundraising for stipends for our Palestinian speakers & interpreters. Additional funds raised will go be distributed to beekeepers in Gaza and the West Bank. Please send your donation of $1 - $100 to @combcutters (venmo) or combcutters@gmail.com (zelle/paypal). No one turned away for lack of funds.
