DESCRIPTION:The screening will be followed by a discussion with film director Janice 
 Haaken (The Palestine Exception)  and Dr. Travis Meleen.\n\nSumud (Arabic: 
 صمود) meaning steadfastness or steadfast perseverance. As increasing 
 numbers of journalists in Gaza are killed by Israeli forces, Gazan health 
 care workers and international medical volunteers serve as vital reporters

 anesthesiologist volunteering in Gaza, with commentary from an 
 Egyptian-Canadian journalist and writer reporting on the 
 genocide.\n\n================================================================\n\nCALL
