Women under occupation – daily life and resistance
Three Palestinian women speak at  Crossroads Women’s Centre

Monday 6 March, 6.30 pm

230a Kentish Town Rd (entrance in Caversham Rd)
Kentish Town, London NW5
Fully wheelchair accessible. All welcome

Abu Dis, in occupied Palestine, is near Jerusalem; women there are struggling to maintain their community and raise their children under Israeli occupation in the shadow of the apartheid “separation” wall. 

Camden Abu Dis Friendship Association is encouraging Camden women, men and children, schools, colleges, health centres . . . to “twin” with Abu Dis.

 The visit of three Palestinian women around International Women’s Day, is part of this initiative.  They are a head teacher, a doctor, and a student at Al Quds University.  Two of them are mothers, and one is involved in a support group for mothers of prisoners.

 Jointly organised with the Global Women’s Strike -- grassroots women’s actions in over 60 countries, on International Women’s Day and throughout the year, to press governments to “Invest in Caring Not Killing” and for the money squandered on the military to be spent instead on what our communities need, beginning with the needs of women, the first carers on whom every else depends.

 All welcome -- we hope to see you there!
