About the Book

Danny Shaw's This is Genocide! Forty-eight poems for Gaza is a cry of indignation against the extermination campaign the world is watching play out in what is left of Palestine. The poet asks why are we - the underdog, the oppressed, the occupied, the colonized, the Global Palestinian Family and the vast global majority - on the defensive when recent history and the truth is clearly anti-Zionist? The book begins with an extensive introduction "Palestine vs. The Capitalist World" which uses the Marxist method to evaluate the powerful forces which have contracted since 1948 in an attempt to exterminate the indigenous Arab nation. Part II., "October 7th The Children of the Craters," is an epic poem composed of forty-eight stanzas which offers a different historical and spiritual view of what happened on that Saturday and what it means for humanity. The forty-eight poems that follow are kryptonite to the Zionist and capitalist aplogists for this ongoing genocide. Shaw takes on the liberals and conservatives and their main pundits for their hypocrisy and silence over the past four months as the children of Palestine are disappeared by the thousands. The final section is a syllabus which the professor and the Midwestern Marx Institute have used to teach the anti-colonial history of Palestine since October 7th. Those new to the Palestinian liberation struggle as well as veterans of anti-colonial resistance are sure to take away a great deal from this poetic cri de coeur which seeks to blast through all forms of shadow banning, deplatforming and censorship and give voice to a nation that has been silenced for seventy-five years.

Endorsements:

"Danny Shaw knows resistance to imperialism when he sees it, Haiti to Angola, Louisiana to Gaza. And he knows liberalism when he sees it, New York to London to Tel Aviv. His is the tradition of Robeson, Brecht, Gary Hicks."
Wadi'h Halabi, Communist Party USA, Palestinian refugee, former Gaza resident, student of the material basis for revolutionary optimism today

"Was October 7th a 'terrorist attack' or a prison break?" With this simple yet profound question, Danny Shaw, in his brilliant book of poetry and prose, This is Genocide! Forty-eight Poems for Gaza, lands the issue of Palestinian liberation on its proper dialectical/historical ground. This book is a must read for anyone who not only wants to know more about the crimes committed by imperialism against the heroic people of Palestine, but also wants to see more vividly the human side of this ongoing tragedy."
Bahman Azad, President, United States Peace Council

"A masterful exposition of revolutionary art that serves and enlightens humanity on the most consequential affair of our era." -
Carlos L. Garrido, Director Midwestern Marx Institute

"Danny Shaw gives a voice to the anger and despair that so many of us in the West have felt while witnessing Israel's genocide in Gaza through our phones."
Edward Liger Smith, Director Midwestern Marx Institute
