Land, Freedom, Equality: A Palestinian Village’s Non-Violent Struggle
Meet Iyad Burnat, leader of the non-violent popular resistance in Bil’in, Palestine. A rare opportunity to meet a man who is deeply engaged in a life and death struggle to end 45 years of military occupation of his land, his home. Hear first-hand about Bilin’s successful struggle to regain part of their farmland from Israel when the Separation Wall was placed there and their land confiscated without compensation, and their continuing non-violent opposition to the Wall. Sponsored by Peace and Justice Action League of Spokane and Veterans for Peace. Co-sponsored by the Unitarian Universalist Church of Spokane.
