DESCRIPTION:Bekah Wolf would like to speak to us about the Palestine Solidarity Project 
 http://palestinesolidarityproject.org/, which she founded with her husband 
 and other Palestinian farmers in 2006.  As is her personal story, PSP is 
 unique:  PSP is organized and run by Palestinian farmers and goes beyond 
 the efforts of isolated villages like Bil'in in that it is building a mass 
 movement of Palestinians; PSP crosses political party lines.  \n \nBekah 
 Wolf will be asking for financial support for the Palestine Solidarity 
 Project after her presentations. Therefore, if you are so inclined, don't 
 forget to bring your checkbooks with you when you come to hear Bekah!\n 
 \n\nAbout Bekah Wolf:\n\n \n\nBekah Wolfe was born in New Mexico in 1980, 
 and grew up a practicing Jew.  Her father is a synagogue cantor and her 
 twin sister is a rabbi in California.\n\nIn 2006 Bekah Wolf moved to 
 Palestine to settle in the West Bank agricultural village of Beit Ommar, 
 which is near Hebron.  Bekah worked with the Palestinian farmers in the 
 village to organize a non-violent struggle against settler attacks and 
 dispossession of their lands by the Israeli occupation – a tough task in 
 the settler-heavy region of Hebron.\n\nBekah’s work is unique in that it 
 involves sustained, rather than short-term, activism.  Bekah has settled in 
 West Bank, living permanently in the village where she recently married 
 Mousa Abu Maria, a Palestinian farmer with whom she organizes the village's 
 resistance to settlers and occupation.\n\nThe Palestinian Solidarity 
 Project is an enormous undertaking.  Bekah and her team's success in the 
 villages close to Hebron provide a great model from which we can learn, 
 from which we can work and from which we can all be inspired. \n
