Jersey City, NJ

To commemorate the horrible MAVI MARMARA incident that occurred where 9 activists were killed by Israeli soldiers during a “boarding” of ships that brought aid such as food and supplies to Palestinian people, we have put together a showing of one of the most powerful documentaries concerning the Israel/Palestine situation that has been going on for many, many years.
We must become aware of how horrible the living conditions are for the Palestinian people and also how it is to live a life in a warzone/reservation.

WeAreChangeNewJersey, Jersey City Peace Movement,TruthMedia.Info, Action 21 with the hand of  WACNYC and NATA-NY  bring you Occupation 101: Voice of the Silenced Majority is an award-winning 2006 documentary film on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict directed by Sufyan Omeish and Abdallah Omeish, and narrated by Alison Weir, founder of If Americans Knew. The film focuses on the effects of the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and discusses events from the rise of Zionism to the Second Intifada and Israel’s unilateral disengagement plan, presenting its perspective through dozens of interviews, questioning the nature of Israeli-American relations — in particular, the Israeli military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, and the ethics of US monetary involvement. [1] Occupation 101 includes interviews with mostly American and Israeli scholars, religious leaders, humanitarian workers, and NGO representatives — more than half of whom are Jewish — who are critical of the injustices and human rights abuses stemming from Israeli policy in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza.
