The Los Angeles Institute for the Humanities Welcomes meital yaniv

Queer artist and death worker meital yaniv, author of bloodlines, will share their personal journey as a death laborer, tending to a prayer for the liberation of the land of Palestine and the lands of our bodies.

bloodlines is an epic and intimate dive into the israeli apartheid regime from the perspective of an ex-israeli, ex-zionist soldier. yaniv traces their paternal family narrative, from surviving the Holocaust to migrating to Palestine and their subsequent indoctrination as zionist colonizers and defenders of the state of israel. yaniv directs our attention to the cycles of history and how genocide not only repeats but grows monstrously in the crevices of state belonging.

The Los Angeles Institute for the Humanities is a cross-disciplinary, intellectual center sponsored by USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts & Sciences.
