Gallery: Interview and Discussion - the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict

 

 

 

We have had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with Alexjo Magic (avatar name) who is a graduate student in Women's Studies, based in Melbourne, Australia. She is an Israeli aussie, and deeply involved in working to expose the stories from Gaza, particularly the experience that both Palestinian and Israeli women have there.

A fascinating discussion - and heartening in that there is such a desire for peace on both sides of the story, and more in common than there is different.

Attendees gather at Port Spinoza in Second Life.

A good-sized crowd on hand.

Questions were taken in text chat and by voice.

We enjoyed live music and poetry by junivers Stockholm and Medora Chevalier, along with the discussion.
