When You Remember Deir Yassin is a collection of poems by R. L.
Green, an American Jewish writer, on the subject of the occupation
and destruction of Palestine. The poems are offered in the original
English with translations into Arabic by Mousa Ishaq and Kristen
Peterson-Ishaq. "Robert Green's anguished poetry speaks with raw
emotion, evoking the decades of conflict and intimate injustices
between Arab and Jew in the land that is now Israel and Palestine.
As a Jewish writer, Green is as familiar with the tragedy of the
Nazi Holocaust as the massacre at Deir Yassin. He challenges his
friends and family to open their hearts to the experiences of the
people who bore the brunt of the Jewish catastrophe, the subsequent
'War of Liberation', and the ongoing brutality of the Israeli
occupation. By bluntly giving voice to the voiceless, he also
challenges us all to join in his vision with both compassion and
outrage." Alice Rothchild MD (author of Broken Promises, Broken
Dreams: Stories of Jewish and Palestinian Trauma and Resilience)

In Tropical Idolatry, R.L. Green examines how thinkers within the
Society of Jesus attempted to convert indigenous peoples of New
Spain, the Philippine Islands, and the Mariana Islands to
Catholicism during the early modern period. Through the close
readings of Jesuit authored theological treatises and historical
texts, all placed firmly within a rich, vibrant, and nuanced
Catholic intellectual tradition, the evolution of ideas on the
topic of indigenous religion within an imperial context becomes
apparent. The purpose of this book is to demonstrate the importance
that both religious and political beliefs played in the
establishment of the Church in the Spanish Pacific world. The
intent is to reconsider some commonly held assumptions regarding
the Jesuit missionary enterprise and its role in the origins of
global Catholicism.
