My guest today is Mx.Yaffa, Executive Director of the Muslim Alliance for Sexual and Gender Diversity, or MASGD. Yaffa is a queer Palestinian poet, author, activist, and death doula whose family history of multiple displacements goes back 3-4 generations.
In this episode, Yaffa shares their and their family’s history of displacement and movement. In the next episode, we will hear more about what she and MASGD are doing to support the queer muslim and Palestinian community in this period of danger, violence, and escalating Islamophobia. Yaffa's forthcoming collection of poetry, Blood Orange, is available for pre-order here. Follow the instructions at this post to get the e-book version if you pre-order the book. Book profits support queer and trans Palestinians on the ground and queer and trans Palestinian work elsewhere.
