The occupation of the West Bank and Gaza has been one of the world�s most widely reported yet least understood human rights crises for over four decades. In this oral history collection, men and women from Palestine�including a fisherman, a settlement administrator, and a marathon runner�describe in their own words how their lives have been shaped by the historic crisis. Other narrators include: ABEER, a young journalist from Gaza City who launched her career by covering bombing raids on the Gaza Strip. IBTISAM, the director of a multi-faith children�s center in the West Bank whose dream of starting a similar center in Gaza has so far been hindered by border closures. GHASSAN, an Arab-Christian physics professor and activist from Bethlehem who co-founded the International Solidarity Movement. (less)
