DESCRIPTION:Feryal Abu Haikal and Mohammed Khatib live in communities that are 
 immediately threatened with destruction and expulsion by the Israeli 
 military and settlers. They will speak of their personal experiences 
 mobilizing their communities to nonviolently resist these measures. 
 \n\nMOHAMMED KHATIB is a leading member of Bil’in’s Popular Committee 
 Against the Wall and the Secretary of the Bil’in Village Council. He has 
 been a principal organizer of Bil’in’s two- year creative, nonviolent 
 struggle to prevent the construction of Israel’s Wall on Bil’in’s 
 land and to block the expansion of neighboring illegal Israeli settlements. 
 Mohammed has frequently been arrested and injured by the Israeli military 
 for participating in nonviolent protests. He is quoted frequently in the 
 Palestinian, Israeli and international media. \n\nFERYAL ABU HAIKAL, an 
 educator and a 60 year-old mother of eleven children, recently retired 
 after eleven years as the headmistress at the Qurtuba School in Hebron’s 
 old city. The school serves 100 Palestinian children. Some of the most 
 extreme Israeli settlers have taken up residence in Hebron's old city, and 
 they regularly attack Palestinian residents in order to drive them from 
 their homes. By continuing to function despite Israeli attacks on students 
 and staff, the Qurtuba School has served as a model of nonviolent 
 resistance. Feryal and her family also remain in their family home in 
 nearby Tel Rumeida despite continual Israeli attacks.\n\nContributions will 
 be solicited. Generosity will be honored.\nFor more information contact
