"We read each name of the 15,613 children who had been killed in Gaza. We began at 10 a.m., and by 3 p.m. we hadn't even reached the five-year-olds. What does it mean to be part of a world that allows this? Each child was a beacon—a glowing light that was loved."

In Don't Look Away, award-winning Canadian journalist Jorah Kai confronts head-on one of the most devastating humanitarian crises of our time. What began as a personal awakening—sparked by his granddaughter Naomi's birth and the unbearable images of children dying under siege—becomes a searing meditation on conscience, complicity, and courage.

Blending frontline reportage, historical documentation, and moral testimony, Kai challenges readers not just to learn, but to feel—to reckon. He draws on legal frameworks, Jewish and Palestinian voices, and the blunt facts of genocide and apartheid to expose the cost of global indifference. In doing so, he offers no easy comfort—only the conviction that truth-telling is the first step toward justice.

Jorah Kai dismantles the moral gaslighting that brands dissent as "hatred," proving that equating critics of genocide with bigots isn't a defense of Jews—it's an unsustainable defense of apartheid.

Don't Look Away is not a call to arms. It is a call to heart: to witness. To act. To refuse silence in the face of atrocity. This is not a book about politics. It is a book about children, about the stories we tell—and the ones we're too afraid to face.

Released June 15, 2025, in solidarity with the Global March to Gaza—tens of thousands of activists from over fifty countries rallying at the gates of Rafah to demand an end to siege and starvation—this book joins their cry: Enough. Let it be said that we did not stay silent.
