offsite link Why Are Some Rapes More Equal Than Others? Tue Mar 18, 2025 07:00 | Steven Tucker
When rapists are Right-wing we, rightly, hear all about their crimes. But not so much when they're Left-Wing, says Steven Tucker. Which is probably why you've never heard of the alleged crimes of this gay rights activist.

Talk and photographs from Palestine At Solidarity Books

category cork | anti-war / imperialism | event notice author Saturday May 19, 2012 20:31author by Ericauthor email solidaritybooks at gmail dot comauthor address SolidarityBooks 43 Douglas Street, (opp. fionnbarras) Cork City Report this post to the editors

Talk and photographs from Palestine At Solidarity Books, 43 Douglas Street ( *** Tomorrow *** ) Sunday 20th May, 5.00pm



Resistance to the Israeli Occupation –nonviolent solidarity among Palestinians and Israelis.
What has been happening, why, what have activists been doing -analysis and update from Palestine and the Global March on Jerusalem.

Maxine Kaufmann-Lacousta: Canadian and Israeli, activist and writer, Maxine has been involved in activism for justice in Palestine and Israel, either part-time or fulltime most of her life. She has visited the area regularly for extended periods since the 60’s and lived in Jerusalem in the 80’s and 90’s, working with the Alternative Information Center. She saw the error of Zionism after her first visit to Israel as a teenager with a Zionist youth organization in 1960. She was instrumental in bringing about international support for the Jahalin Bedouin, fighting their cause in the courts and practically by staying with them, as protector and witness to threats from Israeli bulldozers.

This is a great opportunity to meet and discuss the issues with Maxine, and hear a presentation based on her book –that presents the story from 100 Palestinian and Israeli activists and their analysis -as well as an up-to-date report from last month. Though Maxine in realistic, her presentation is inspiring.

Copies of Maxine’s recent book Refusing to be Enemies - Palestinian and Israeli Nonviolent Resistance to the Israeli Occupation published by Ithaca Press (2011) will be available for sale.
