An on-going war between the Palestinians in Gaza and the state of Israel has existed since the Second Initifada in September 2000. What is to be done?

The Christian Peacemaker Teams have placed violence-reduction teams in crisis situations and militarized areas around the world, including Gaza and the West Bank, at the invitation of local peace and
human rights workers. CPT understands violence to be rooted in systemic structures of oppression and is committed to undoing oppressions as part of their violence reduction work.

Joy McNabb and Karen Carter of the Christian Peacemaker Teams will present a program on Gaza and the Palestinians on Saturday, January 30 at 6:30 PM at Grandin Gardens, 1731 Grandin Rd. "Occupation
101", a film about Gaza, will be shown. Event is free.
