PALESTINE: A People in Resistance.

Don’t miss this powerful and moving presentation of a story of non violent resistance and the amazing resilience of a people who live daily under Israeli occupation by Theresa Wolfwood. Theresa is Director of the Barnard-Boecker Foundation Centre in Canada and a longstanding human rights activist. She has over the years built up deep contacts in all areas of Palestinian society, in the villages and cities of the West Bank to the refugee camps of Lebanon and Jordan. Often at the cutting edge of that resistance, she has been tear gassed and threatened by Israeli soldiers.

Free Entrance. A Joint RISC/Reading Palestine Solidarity Campaign Event.
