Join us on September 16 at 7 PM to meet with Israeli peace activist/conscientious objector Atalya Ben-Abba!
Join us for an opportunity to hear firsthand reflections and perspectives from
Atalya Ben-Abba, an Israeli peace activist and conscientious objector, reflecting on the current moment and what can lead to real change moving forward.
Participants will get to meet Atalya, hear her story of refusing to serve in the IDF, solidarity work with Palestinians in the West Bank combating settler violence, the biggest challenges to the peace movement, and the work of Israelis who are demanding a political - not military - solution to the escalating crisis.
In her writing, speaking, and activism, Atalya insists that equal rights for all people who live in Israel/Palestine is the only path to peace. The program will conclude with a Q & A and opportunities for future engagement.
A program of the Refuser Solidarity Network. Hosted by Congregation T'chiyah, in partnership with The Shalom Center and Fellowship of Reconciliation.
