Hope you can join us for an enlightening evening with two knowledgeable speakers having first-hand information about conditions in Palestine and Israel, journalist Pam Bailey and Dr. Dorothy Naor.

Pam Bailey is working on a documentary, The Palestinian Gandhi Project, which you can sample here: http://vimeo.com/channels/palestiniangandhiproject#24959088 Pam will speak about her extensive work in Palestine initiated by two life-changing trips to to the area (with Global Exchange in 2007 and as an International Solidarity Movement volunteer in 2008). Pam joined Codepink: Women for Peace on its first delegation to Gaza for International Women's Day in 2009. Since then, she has returned to Gaza three times, for longer and longer stays. In addition to her own filming and writing, Pam reports for InterPress Service, Electronic Intifada and Truthout.org, as well as for progressive radio.

Joining Pam will be Dr. DorothyNaor, Israeli educator and activist with New Profile (a feminist organization working against Israeli militarism) and Boycott from Within (an Israeli organization that supports the Palestinian call for bds). Dr. Naor, who works tirelessly on these issues in Israel, will speak about the realities and costs of the Israeli occupation, both to Israelis and Palestinians.

Dr. Naor was also an invaluable member of the support team for Cindy and Craig Corrie during their recent case against the IDF in Israel for Rachel's killing.
