Film Discussion: Where Olive Trees Weep

Please join us Sunday, November 10^th at 12:00 pm for a discussion of the film Where Olive Trees Weep.

Where Olive Trees Weep offers a searing window into the struggles and resilience of the Palestinian people under Israeli occupation. It explores themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice.

You can download the film at https://sand.thrivecart.com/where-olive-trees-weep/

All are welcome whether you’ve watched the film or not.

We’ll show excerpts and discuss the film with Dr. Judith Norman – a Murchison Distinguished Professor and Chair of the Department of Philosophy at Trinity University. Dr. Norman has worked with movements for economic justice, anti-militarization, educational justice, decarceration, and the liberation of Palestine. The latter is closest to her heart, and she has worked with Jewish Voice for Peace and San Antonio for Justice in Palestine.We will meet in the choir room (off the Sanctuary) for a light snack and hold the discussion in the Sanctuary.
