What happened when he ran into trouble with the White House, Senate and Department of Justice? How does AIPAC's history inform us about foreign influence on U.S. political campaigns and American Middle East policy today? Those are questions we answer in this book!

Anyone who is raising Palestinian children in the diaspora owes Reem Kassis a huge debt of gratitude. The acclaimed cookbook author decided to write a children’s book, she tells us in the introduction to We Are Palestinian, because she wanted to show her young daughters and all young readers “how beautiful their culture is and that they can take part in it and be proud of it no matter where they are in the world.” 

Kassis accomplishes this—and more. This wonderful book is really a love letter to Palestine itself, describing what it is that makes Palestinians an identifiable Arab nation and imparts to children the reasons they can take pride in their culture. That foundational understanding will stand them in good stead as they grow up in what can often feel like a hostile environment.
