“Teach-In” on Palestine

CIRFA is initiating a series of “Teach-In” activities with the aim of gaining a better understanding of the various crises shaking various countries in the South, of which the mass media either provide insufficient and biased information or ignore altogether.

Given the current situation in Palestine, CIRFA is starting with this region.

Around sixty people, from all generations and backgrounds, in solidarity with the Palestinian cause, attended the first Palestine Teach-In on occupation and resistance. Rachad Antonius and Amir Khadir outlined the genesis of the conflict, demonstrating the mechanisms that exacerbated the situation, leading to today’s tragedy. A rich and lively debate followed.

This Friday, November 10, 5.30pm, a second Teach-In activity will be organized to better understand the situation of women, their perspective within the conflict and their contribution to the struggle of the Palestinian people.

This Teach-In will be presented by Zahai El-Masri, Palestinian activist and long-standing feminist campaigner, and Tara Alami, member of the Palestinian feminist movement and writer
