SUMMARY:Voices from the Holy Land: Online Film Salon
DESCRIPTION:Two documentary films\, Voices across the Divide and Born in Deir Yassin\, pull back the carefully constructed curtain of “a land without people for a people without a land.” Since 1948\, a monumental effort has been made to promote a romantic mythology of Israel’s creation and to hide the brutal violence. But firsthand accounts by both the oppressor and the oppressed\, the expeller and the exiled\, reveal the ongoing wounds. Nothing is resolved by dialogue alone\, yet nothing will be resolved without it. Any hope of coexistence begins when the historical truth is rediscovered and acknowledged. It begins here. \nWatch the film for free at your convenience; then join the Q&A Discussion with: \nAlice Rothchild:  Author\, filmmaker\, and Assistant Professor\, Harvard Medical School (Retd.)\nEmad Moussa:  Palestinian-British journalist\, researcher\, and human rights activist\nHuda Giddens: Palestinian American educator\, Nakba survivor\nAhlam Muhtaseb (moderator):  Author\, filmmaker\, and Professor of Media Studies at CSUSB \nYou must register to join the discussion & receive access to the film:  Tinyurl.com/VFHL-May2023\nWatch the Trailers: 1) vimeo.com/818747654             2) vimeo.com/818744242 \nHow this will work: \n1 – Register here for the Voices from the Holy Land Online Film Salon: \nTinyurl.com/VFHL-May2023 \n2 – Once you register\, you will get a confirmation email from Zoom with a link to the meeting and a link with to watch the film.  (Save this confirmation letter as the meeting link is unique to your email and you must have this to participate.) \n3 – Watch the film at your convenience before the event.  Then join us with your thoughts and questions for our speakers at the Q&A Discussion on Sunday May 21\, 2023 at 3 pm ET/ 12 noon PT.

SUMMARY:Honoring Palestinian Fathers with PFC
DESCRIPTION:Palestinian Feminist Collective (PFC) warmly invites you to join us for our June 2023 Feminist Futures Program. This month we are honoring Palestinian fathers with a virtual event meant to create space for\, honor and recognize the complex lived experiences and realities of Palestinian fathers. We will be hosting two incredible speakers: Raja Shehadeh\, author of the memoir We Could Have Been Friends\, My Father and I\, and Abeer Otman\, postdoctoral scholar\, who will unpack how Zionist settler colonialism impinges on Palestinian fatherhood\, as well as how fathers defy settler colonialism by showing love\, care\, and protection for their families and homes. As Palestinian feminists\, we will conceptualize: What are the experiences of Palestinian fathers – diverse and complicated? How do we tell these stories of fatherhood? How can we continue to hold them and make space for them in our pursuit of Palestinian liberation? \n  \nAbeer Otman’s postdoctoral research investigates father-child connectivity under the settler-colonial context. She has a doctorate in social work from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her doctoral research focused on fathers and fatherhood in a settler colonial context: the case of occupied East Jerusalem (OEJ). As a community and social worker in East Jerusalem for more than ten years\, she engages in local activities concerning fulfillment of socio-economic rights\, improving physical spaces\, developing social and educational services. \nRaja Shehadeh is a Palestinian lawyer\, human rights activist\, and writer. He co-founded the Palestinian human rights organization Al-Haq in 1979. He is the author of several books\, including Palestinian Walks\, which he won the Orwell Prize in 2008. In addition to his legal work\, Shehadeh has written a number of books about Palestine through the lens of his life\, including Strangers in the House (2002)\, Occupation Diaries (2012)\, and his latest\, We Could Have Been Friends\, My Father and I: A Palestinian Memoir (2022).

SUMMARY:Conflict\, Hope\, Peace\, and Public Health in Palestine - Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Join the DGH DEI Committee for a discussion with Professor Izzeldin Abuelaish on conflict\, hope\, peace\, and public health in Palestine. \nThursday\, October 5\, 2023 | 10:00-11:30 a.m.\nHans Rosling Center Room 101 \nProf. Izzeldin Abuelaish is a Palestinian Canadian physician and an internationally recognized human rights and peace activist devoted to advancing health and education opportunities for women and girls in the Middle East. Born and raised in Jabalia Refugee Camp in the Gaza Strip\, he is the first Palestinian doctor to receive an appointment in Medicine at an Israeli hospital. Through his work\, he has experienced firsthand the impacts of conflict in many countries. His experience working as both an insider and outsider to conflict has led him to believe that doctors are particularly well-poised to serve as peacemakers\, based on the moral doctrine of their profession. His work as both a healthcare practitioner and a peace advocate builds on this philosophy of health as a tool for peace. Prof. Abuelaish has been nominated five times for Nobel Peace Prize. \n  \nDr. Abuelaish’s book\, I Shall Not Hate: A Gaza Doctor’s Journey\, an autobiography inspired by the loss of his three daughters to Israeli shelling\, has achieved critical acclaim and has been translated into 23 languages. It is available as an e-book from the UW library and the Seattle Public Library.

In light of the Western media’s biased coverage and one-sided narrative that often favors Israel\, it is crucial to provide an alternative perspective that delves into the historical context and Israel’s actions over the past 75 years that have contributed to the current situation. Our aim is to present a comprehensive understanding of the complex dynamics at play and offer an opportunity for visitors to uncover the true facts. By joining us at the open house\, attendees will have the chance to learn about the rich historical background of Palestine and gain valuable insights that are often omitted from mainstream narratives. We invite all interested individuals to come and engage in meaningful conversations that have the potential to broaden horizons and foster a more comprehensive understanding of the Palestinian struggle for freedom and justice.

In her research and teaching she focuses on the politics\, society\, and economy of twentieth-century Iraq and the broader Persian Gulf region\, as well as Middle Eastern urban history. Among others her teaching has been recognized by the UW’s Distinguished Teaching Award. Bet-Shlimon’s first book\, City of Black Gold: Oil\, Ethnicity\, and the Making of Modern Kirkuk (Stanford University Press\, 2019)\, explores how oil and urbanization made ethnicity into a political practice in Kirkuk\, a multilingual city that was the original hub of Iraq’s oil industry.

SUMMARY:Online Film Salon Discussion: Films on "Hydropolitics"
DESCRIPTION:Register: Tinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024Watch the films at your convenience! \nJoin the panel at 12pm! \n\nwww.voicesfromtheholyland.org/salonrecordings  \n\nInvitation to an Online Film Salon\nSunday March 17\, 2024\n\nControlling the supply\, distribution\, and cost of water to an occupied people is apartheid in action. Israel\, through legal and illegal means\, maintains near-complete control over the region’s freshwater aquifers\, severely restricting Palestinians’ abilities to drill wells\, install pumps\, build water tanks\, or even collect rainwater. The average Israeli consumes over 3 times the water used by Palestinian on the water grid in the West Bank (9 times the water used by those off the grid).

SUMMARY:USCPR Action Phone Zap: DISRUPTING CAMPAIGN EVENTS
DESCRIPTION:Join USCPR Action on Wednesday\, March 20 to mobilize our masses calling Congress and to learn how to disrupt campaign events. On the Zoom call\, you’ll hear a case study on how to disrupt a politician’s event to force the demand to stop arming Israel onto their agenda. We’ll also be mobilizing to defend Rafah and to stop “THE DEADLY DEAL\,” a $95 bilion spending package that just passed the Senate and now heads to the House. The Deadly Deal includes $14 billion in weapons to Israel for arming genocide\, and the elimination of all humanitarian funding to the UNRWA aid agency for Palestinian refugees\, permanently. At 2 PM ET / 11 AM PT\, we’ll flood Congress’s phone lines together to let them know we’re watching as the U.S. government continues to back Israel’s horrific massacres and forced starvation of Palestinians in Gaza. Demand that your elected officials call for a PERMANENT CEASEFIRE NOW and stop arming Israel! Join us this Wednesday\, March 20 at 2 PM ET.
