Don’t Ask the Trees for Their Names
Don’t Ask the Trees for Their Names: Stories of Leaving and Becoming with Loubna Haikal, Nouha El-Khoury Francis, and Kilda Eid
Join us for the celebration of Don’t Ask the Trees for Their Names: Stories of Leaving and Becoming. In this richly woven tapestry of stories, nine Arab women share their deeply personal journeys of migration to Australia, each reflecting on the legacies of their homelands and the complexities of forging new lives. In their own voices, they explore the challenges of adaptation, the resilience born from adversity, moments of joy, and the enduring ties to their heritage. With unique perspectives, they examine Australian culture while confronting some of the world’s most pressing political injustices through the lens of lived experience.
