Bloodlines: Disillusionment and Return:Can They Meet? Gabor Maté in conversation with meital yaniv

Bloodlines, Disillusionment and Return: Can They Meet? Gabor Maté In Conversation with meital yaniv was a virtual event that took place on January 10, 2024.
Gabor Maté is a retired physician, international speaker and writer whose books have been published in 37 languages, and author most recently the New York Times and international bestseller, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Health in a Toxic Culture. His areas of expertise include child development, trauma, the mind/body unity in health and illness, and addictions. An infant survivor of the Holocaust and a former Zionist youth leader, he is well-known for his critique of Israel’s policies towards the Palestinians. He lives in Vancouver, B.C.
meital yaniv (b. 1984, Tel-Aviv, israel) is learning how to be in a human form. they do things with words, with moving and still images, with threads, with bodies in front of bodies, with the Earth. they are a death laborer tending to a prayer for the liberation of the land of Palestine and the lands of our bodies. they keep Fires and submerge themselves in Ocean and Sea Water often. yaniv is learning to listen to the Waters, birdsongs, caretakers, and ancestors as they walk as a guest on the home and gathering place of the Cahuilla-ʔívil̃uwenetem Meytémak, Tongva-Kizh Nation, Luiseño-Payómkawichum, and Serrano-Yuhaaviatam/Maarenga'yam. They are the author of bloodlines, an epic and intimate dive into the israeli apartheid regime from the perspective of an ex-israeli/ex-zionist soldier. bloodlines can be purchased at: www.communitiesofmemory.com
This event was organized by the Memory and Resistance Laboratory, a collective initiative to develop radical memory work across media forms for the healing and empowerment of communities. At the Memory and Resistance Laboratory we are actively working to link geographies of settler colonial occupation, from Palestine to California, and to urge forth a planet where all lands, bodies, and worlds are liberated. This event was co-sponsored by the Decolonizing Humanities Initiative at the Center for Ideas and Society at UC Riverside.
