The Crisis in Gaza group (started by Furzedown Residents) will host this event. The group came together in response to shock at the loss of life and infrastructure in Gaza during operation cast lead 2008/9.
This event includes a speaker, Nandita Dowson, from the twinning of Camden in London and Abu Dis in Palestine (a Palestinian town which featured in the drama ‘The Promise’ on Channel Four in February). In addition they will invite people to view a ‘Book of Destruction’, a record of a photographic exhibition which recorded the aftermath of operation cast lead.
Nandita will show two short videos from cultural exchanges in Camden and Abu Dis, Stories from our Mothers film and a Youth for Human Rights film, both about twinning. There will be some illustrations of Twinning and the activity of this group and then a Q & A/discussion
Above is a flier for a current Palestinian art exhibition which the group has recommended, It's on till 21st April at the Mosaic Rooms gallery near Earls Court.
