Al Hayya, Issue 2

Al Hayya is a magazine that publishes literary and visual content on the works, interests and strife of women, bilingually in Arabic and English.

The second issue of Al Hayya attempts to tackle the intersection between the body of the individual and that of the land that carries it. ⁣

Historically subjected to land theft, migration, and displacement, the often bitter question of land and belonging blends with the daily life of the Arab, as well as that of every person whose soil was a target of colonization. This form of abuse and exploitation transforms not only the land itself, but the experience of the individuals who care for it, live from it, and within it.
