When: the First and Third Sundays in October and November, 1- 3 p.m., followed by audience discussion.

Jewish Voice for Peace VT-NH is sponsoring a series of four, feature-length documentaries about Palestine-Israel on the following dates:

October 5: “The Palestine Exception” documents U.S. college students, faculty, and staff protesting Israel’s genocidal war in Gaza and the extreme measures taken by authorities to curtail their freedom of speech and assembly. Columbia University student activist Mohsen Mahdawi will speak with the audience after the film.

October 19: “A State of Passion” focuses on the efforts of a Palestinian surgeon and other health care professionals to save lives amidst the Gaza genocide. The film’s directors will join the audience afterwards for a discussion.

November 2: “Gaza: Journalists Under Fire” exposes Israel’s targeted and unlawful attacks on Palestinian and other journalists to eliminate accurate news coverage.

November 16: “Advocate” narrates the life and work of Lea Tsemel, a Jewish-Israeli attorney who has devoted much of her career to the legal defense of Palestinians under military occupation.
The films and community discussions promise to be informative and thought provoking.
