Dear friends,

On Monday I will begin my final US speaking tour of the year before
heading to Syria, Lebanon, and--hopefully--Gaza. I look forward to
being in touch once I'm there.

This tour is through the Northeast, including Connecticut, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, and Washington DC.

If you know people in the area, please forward this to anyone who
might be interested...

Anna Baltzer presents:

"LIFE IN OCCUPIED PALESTINE: EYEWITNESS STORIES & PHOTOS"

Anna Baltzer, a Jewish American Columbia graduate, former Fulbright
scholar, author, and volunteer with the International Women's Peace
Service, will provide photographic documentation and critical
information often misrepresented or ignored in the Western media.
Baltzer's presentation covers the Israeli Occupation, 1948 & the
Palestinian refugees, Israeli activism, censorship & myths, and
Palestinian-led nonviolent resistance.

Baltzer will also be selling and signing copies of her expanded
full-color book: "Witness in Palestine: A Jewish American Woman in the
Occupied Territories." For more information about Baltzer's book, DVD,
and presentations, visit www.AnnaInTheMiddleEast.com

Candace: if you live near any of these, it is well worth your time to take advantage, this woman has first hand knowledge of the conditions of the people in Palestine, particularly the West Bank, and contacts in Gaza. I have met her personally, and keep in some email contact. She has grown tremendously in her world view since I met her, and I know that her current presentations are much improved, although her work was very good at the time I met her.
