SUMMARY:One Day\, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This | Buffett Book Talk with Omar El Akkad
UID:646221@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Buffett Book Talk with Omar El Akkad\, author of One Day\, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This\, described by Fintan O’Toole in The New York Times as a “fiercely agonized new book about American and European responses to the devastation of Gaza. El Akkad is trying...to force American readers to think of Palestinian victims not as ‘them’ but as ‘us.’ If\, in the novel\, he is attempting to close the cognitive gap between America and the Middle East\, in One Day he is raging against the widening of that gulf\, the way\, at least in official discourse\, the immense suffering of civilians in Gaza since October 7 is kept at bay\, confined to the outer darkness of things that happen to people who are not quite human.” The book is the winner of the 2025 National Book Award for Nonfiction.    Doors open at 12:00 p.m.\, and lunch begins at 12:15 p.m.   Please note that 720 University Place is not an ADA-accessible space. Increasing physical access to buildings and facilities is a goal of the University\, but not all buildings and venues have been updated. \n\nRegister: https://events.humanitix.com/reinventing-caste-islam-and-hierarchy-in-late-colonial-india-or-buffett-book-talk-with-ashish-koul?c=planitpurple
