A conversation with Alice Rothchild and Jonathan Kuttab
join at
bit.ly/fosna
We will speak with Alice Rothchild (physician, author, activist, filmmaker) about what she has been hearing on the ground in Gaza, in particular from the medical community. We Will then turn to Jonathan Kuttab (international human rights attorney) to speak briefly about what brought us to this unfolding genocide and what, if anything, we might see beyond it-not simply for a ceasefire and ongoing “facts on the ground” but towards authentic transformation on the ground
facilitated by Doug Thorpe of the Bishops Committee for Justice and Peace in the Holy Land and St. Marks Mideast Focus Ministry.
