[Peace] [Fwd: Jewish Speaker on Palestine this Spring?]

[Niloofar Shambayati]

Hello all,

I highly recommend inviting Anna back.  I've been to her talks and have read
her book and watched her documentary---all very effective at both personal
and political levels.  If there's one person who can have a positive impact
on the public's attitude towards Palestinians and their plight, it would be
Anna.
