In this unique exploration of the interplay of knowledge, memory, language, loss, and the layered unspeakability surrounding Palestine, Khawla Badwan develops an applied linguistics that sits with Gaza and the international failure to prevent the world's first livestreamed genocide. Still Gaza offers a deep understanding of how language operates in relation to human experience and how it can be stretched and shattered with pain and trauma. It presents a kind of applied linguistics and intercultural education scholarship that is critical, timely, disobedient, anticolonial and truly rooted in the lived experiences of genocide, erasure and struggle. The knowledge it produces is not only contemporary and current but also lived, felt, breathed, embodied and experienced. Genre-defying, Still Gaza refigures language as ethical action. It enables readers to understand the power of language as a witnessing project and as a tool for collective remembering and social healing.
