    Mizrahi women authors come together to explore the power of storytelling, cultural memory, and the reclamation of space in the literary world.

    Through conversation about their books and lived experiences, the panel highlights how marginalized voices challenge erasure, expand the canon, and illuminate histories too often overlooked.

    This conversation brings together Jewish Iraqi women writers whose work confronts invisibility and reshapes the narrative landscape. Join us as we discuss our books, our heritage, and the ongoing work of amplifying voices long pushed to the margins.
