"Mutanabbi Street Starts Here: An Exhibition of Broadsides"
On March 5th, 2007, more than 30 people were killed when a car bomb was exploded on Mutanabbi Street, an old and established street for bookselling in the heart of Baghdad's literary and intellectual community. To protest the bombing, the Mutanabbi Street Coalition, a group started by San Francisco poet and bookseller Beau Beausoleil, organized readings and invited letterpress printers to produce broadsides by Iraqi poets and writiers. Moving Parts Press contributed "Destinies" by Gzar Hantoosh.
