DESCRIPTION:Please join us to welcome Leila Haddad, 'Gaza Mom', as part of her West 
 Coast book tour. In addition to speaking about her book: 'Gaza Mom: 
 Palestine, Politics, Parenting, and Everything In Between', Leila will also 
 be speaking about and leading a discussion on the Egyptian revolution, and 
 its effects on Gaza in particular and Palestine in general.\n\nLaila's 
 book, 'Gaza Mom: Palestine, Politics, Parenting, and Everything In Between' 
 El-Haddad takes us into the life and world of a busy Palestinian journalist 
 who is both covering the story of Gaza and living it—very intensely. This 
 book is El-Haddad’s self-curated choice of the best of her writings from 
 December 2004 through July 2010.\n\nLeila Haddad is a talented blogger, 
 political analyst, social activist, and parent-of-two from Gaza. She earned 
 a B.A. from Duke University and MPP from Harvard’s Kennedy School of 
 Government. She and her two young children spend as much time in Gaza as 
 they can– her spouse, a Palestinian physician who grew up in a refugee 
 camp in Lebanon, is not allowed by Israel to enter Gaza. He’s an 
 assistant professor of ophthalmology at Johns Hopkins Medical School, so 
 El-Haddad and their children spend much of their time with him in 
 Maryland.\n\n$5-10 donation requested to assist with travel funds, no one 
 turned away for lack of funds \n
