 virtual screening of the documentary film "The history of Gaza as told by 
 the late Palestinian artist Laila Shawa (1940 - 2022)." The film screening 
 will be followed by Q&A discussions with the audience.\n\nThis film was 
 originally broadcast as an episode of ‘Diaspora’ show presented by 
 Lauren Booth on PressTV in 2012. During this episode of the show,  the late 
 acclaimed Palestinian artist Laila Shawa (1940-2022) talks about the 
 history of Gaza, the Shawa family and the Israeli occupation. As with many 
 films about Palestine, the content seems current despite the 13 years that 
 had passed since its 
 release.\n\n================================================================\n\nCALL
