Hi friends,
Join the WILPF US Middle East Peace & Justice Action Committee and the WILPF Des Moines Branch for a special webinar, Planting Hope: Sowing Justice, featuring Daoud Nassar, Director of Tent of Nations, for an update on the conditions for farmers in Palestine.
Since 2007, Daoud and his family have welcomed people from around the world to Tent of Nations, their 100-acre family farm outside Bethlehem in the West Bank. The farm has belonged to the Nassar family since 1916 and has faced the ongoing threat of confiscation by the Israeli government since 1991. Through it all, they have remained committed to nonviolence, sustainable farming, and building peace across cultures and faiths.
During this webinar, Daoud will share updates on the realities facing Palestinian farmers today, the ongoing struggle to protect their land, and the importance of cultivating hope and community even under occupation.
We are co-hosting this event with two other activist groups in Des Moines, the Circle of Peace Makers and the Peace, Justice & Democracy Team of the First Unitarian Church.
