Beskrivning

'Timely and clearly written, To See In the Dark is a manifesto to solidarity' - Stephen Sheehi, co-author of Psychoanalysis Under OccupationTo see Palestine is to see the world. Since October 7th 2023, the forces of racial capitalism and settler colonialism have become all too visible in Israel's genocidal war on Gaza. In To See In the Dark, Nicholas Mirzoeff explores how images, and especially video, viewed outside Palestine enabled a dramatic switch in public opinion, leading to a global uprising against the genocide.In this groundbreaking analysis, he connects the personal and the political through his own anti-Zionist Jewishness and its histories of violence. The result is a new collective and anti-colonial way of seeing, intersecting online and embodied experience.

'Mirzoeff deftly dissects the violent abstractions that are characteristic of the drone’s remote-controlled gaze, arguing incisively for a return to ways of seeing that are grounded in solidarity and resistance'
