Looking Heaven in the Eye: Remembering Refaat Alareer

Looking Heaven in the Eye is about an event of the same name held in Chicago on December 23, 2023, organized by friends of Dr. Refaat Alareer, who was killed in a targeted bombing by Israeli forces on December 6, 2023. The gathering was to remember Refaat and all martyred Palestinian storytellers.
