Voices under Occupation: Daily Life of a Palestinian StudentContributed by Beth Harris on 04/25/09 All are invited to an interactive, documentary-style event about the lives of several students living under occupation in the city of Nablus in the territory of the West Bank. Tuesday, April 28, 7:30 p.m. Four IC students interviewed the Palestinian students through videoconferences to learn about the impacts of military occupation on their lives and the lives of their friends and families. One of the IC students, Carlos Rosales, writes, “The stories of these students echo the voices of the thousands that tell similar stories that have not been heard.” Rosales explains that the documentary/presentation, which was created with the help of the Research Journalism Initiative, “aims to transform the public into witnesses, to take action to end the occupation, to promote peace and reconciliation, and to renew the vision for a better future.” Rosales has developed the project with IC students Frida Becker, Greg Sutliff, and Sam Sadovnic.
