The UT Palestine Solidarity Committee announces LIFE IN OCCUPIED PALESTINE, a presentation by the amazing Anna Baltzer. From her experiences as a human rights activist in Palestine, Anna Baltzer presents clear documentation of the ongoing abuses by Israel against the Palestinian people. Her presentation covers checkpoints, settlements, Israeli activism, censorship, the Wall, and the frequently unreported Palestinian-led nonviolent resistance movement. FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. This is THE talk to hear.
THE presentation to come see if you are at all interested in human rights and wonder why Israel and Palestine stirs up so much passion in so many different people around the world. We hope to see you there! We encourage your participation in the Q and A session which will follow.
Anna Baltzer is a 29 -year-old Jewish American Columbia graduate, Fulbright scholar, author, and the
granddaughter of Holocaust refugees. As a volunteer with the International Women’s Peace Service,
Baltzer documents human rights abuses in the West Bank and supports Palestinian-led nonviolent
resistance to the Occupation. When not in Palestine, Baltzer spends most of her time on tour with her
acclaimed presentation, “Life in Occupied Palestine: Eyewitness Stories &Photos,” and her popular full-
color book, ‘Witness in Palestine: A Jewish American Woman in the Occupied Territories.’ For more
