Write on! Write on! The Inevitable Discomfort of Dissent in Times of Peril and Plunder
What is to be done in the face of rising fascism and imperial violence at home and abroad? Playwright Ismail Khalidi discusses the role of the writer in challenging those who speak the language of discrimination, domination and endless extraction - and the inevitable discomfort that arises from genuine dissent.
Ismail Khalidi is a Palestinian/Lebanese American playwright, screenwriter and theater director, and also the co-writer (with URITP guest artist, Charlotte Brathwaite) of the UR International Theatre Program's upcoming production, THOUGHT/CRIME (inspired by George Orwell's 1984). Khalidi's work tackles the history of Palestine and the modern Middle East, as well as wider themes of race, colonialism, displacement and war.
Co-sponsored by the UR Humanities Center and supported in part by the InstItute for the Performing Arts.
