 Time 88 minutes, 2006, English subtitles. The film screening will be 
 followed by discussions with the audience. \n\nOccupation 101: Voices of 
 the Silenced Majority is an award-winning documentary film directed by 
 Sufyan Omeish and Abdallah Omeish, and narrated by If Americans Knew 
 founder Alison Weir. The film focuses on the effects of the Israeli 
 occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and discusses events from the 
 rise of Zionism to the Second Intifada and Israel's unilateral 
 disengagement plan, presenting its perspective through dozens of 
 interviews, questioning the nature of Israeli-American relations — in 
 particular, the Israeli military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, and 
 the ethics of US monetary involvement. Occupation 101 includes interviews 
 with mostly American and Israeli scholars, religious leaders, humanitarian 
 workers, and NGO representatives — more than half of whom are Jewish — 
 who are critical of the injustices and human rights abuses stemming from 
 Israeli policy in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and 
 Gaza.\n\n=================================================================\n\nCALL
