We will read and discuss “Creative Interventions Toolkit: An Invitation and Practical Guide for Everyone to Stop Violence.”

Israel’s ongoing military occupation of Palestinian territory and its repeated invasions of the Gaza Strip have triggered a fierce backlash against Israeli policies virtually everywhere in the world — except in the United States. “The Occupation of the American Mind,” narrated by Roger Waters and featuring leading observers of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and U.S. media culture, takes an eye-opening look at this critical exception.
