Proud to say that together with Adalah-NY we have supported and will continue to lift-up Dareen’s case, making sure that people understand the high cost she is paying for her poetry. Dareen Tatour should be free.

“Nearly every Palestinian arrested these days in any context of
political dissent or protest is asked by his or her interrogators to
show them their social media accounts. The contents therein often become
the ready-made substance of criminal charges, the severity of which is
often calculated based on the numbers of followers, likes, and shares of
whatever damning post is found.”
