DESCRIPTION:Monday 2/4: Human  Right Activist Mark Turner  \n7pm, 20 Barrows,  UC 
 Berkeley \n\n"Redefining the Occupation  in Palestine": International human 
 rights activist, Mark Turner,  recently spent nine months in Balata Refugee 
 Camp in Nablus where he  volunteered with medical crews during Israeli 
 military invasions and  operations. Mark's films bring attention to the 
 continued, illegal  use of human shields by the Israeli military, including 
 an incident  in which soldiers kidnapped an eleven-year-old girl. In 2003, 
 Mark founded  the Research Journalism Initiative (RJI), an interactive 
 program that  provides tools to teachers and students learning about the 
 Occupation.   RJI staff living in the West Bank work with Palestinian 
 students to  produce film, radio, photographic and print media, then 
 facilitate live  videoconferences between American high school students and 
 Palestinian  university students, creating opportunities for a direct 
 exchange that  is free of the filters typical of the mainstream American 
 media. \nLearn more about RJI at http://researchjournalisminitiative.net/
