Non-violent resistance in occupied Palestine

at Greenbelt 2008: Rising Sun

Friday

Whenever there is violence by Palestinians it seems to be headline news. But there is another story to be told: that of brave and resilient non-violent Palestinian resistance. This illustrated presentation tells the story of such resistance in the Hebron area of the West Bank.

Maureen Jack is a member of Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT) and has served with CPT in Hebron and At-Tuwani in occupied Palestine, as well as in Baghdad before and after the 2003 invasion. A committed pacifist, she speaks from first-hand knowledge of Palestinians' non-violent resistance.
