מחנה הבניה החמישי של הועד הישראלי נגד הריסת בתים

מאמין/ה בבניית קשרי שלום בין ישראלים ופלסטינים ?


הריסת בתים

מזה 40 שנה ישראל מיישמת מדיניות הריסת בתים כאמצעי לחץ על תושבים פלסטינים, בעיקר
במזרח ירושלים, כסוג של 'טרנספר שקט'. מאז 1967 מדינת ישראל הרסה, לפי מידע מתועד, כ-
18,000 בתים בשטחים הכבושים.

משנת 2000 ועד היום נהרסו 5,376 בתים בשטחים הכבושים, מתוכם 481 בירושלים בלבד. אלפי
בתים נוספים נמצאים תחת איום הריסה. כל בית הרוס זו משפחה הרוסה אחת, לפחות!


בניית בתים

מדי שנה אנו מארגנים מחנה בנייה, ומקימים יחד בית חדש למשפחה שביתה נהרס. בזמן של
שבועיים נבנה בית חדש מהיסודות ועד לגג, ונמסור את המפתח למשפחה. זוהי פעולה של התנגדות
אזרחית לא-אלימה, הבאה להביע קול מחאה לכיבוש הישראלי ולנישול הקהילה הפלסטינית מאדמתה
ומורשתה. מעבר למסר של סולידריות, דו שיח וחברות, זו דרך לעזור למשפחה שעברה טראומה קשה
ונותרה חסרת גג.


איך בונים בית ב-14 יום?

כפי שעשינו במחנות הקודמים - עם הרבה זיעה, רצון טוב, ליווי של צוות מקצועי והשתתפות של
מתנדבים בינלאומים, פלסטינים וישראלים (את/ה!)


פעילות במחנה

למשתתפי המחנה תהייה הזדמנות ללמוד על ה'עובדות בשטח' של הסכסוך הישראלי-פלסטיני,
במפגשי ערב עם דמויות פוליטיות, פעילים, אקדמאיים ואמנים, כמו גם ארגונים העובדים על
מנת להשתית שלום צודק בין ישראל והרשות, סרטים על הסכסוך וסיורים מודרכים למקומות שונים
של השטחים הכבושים, בירושלים ובישראל.


ישראלים מוזמנים להצטרף לימי עבודה כיחידים או כקבוצות, לפי תאום מראש


מתי מחנה הבניה נמשך מ- 14/7 עד שבת 28/7 (טקס חנוכת הבית החדש ייערך ביום
ראשון- 29/7).

(יש ימים בהם דרושים יותר מתנדבים - אנא תתקשרו בהקדם לתאם איתנו!)

איפה בעיירה ענאתא, בין הר הצופים ופסגת זאב, בשטח המותר לכניסת ישראלים.

הסעות יוצאות מדי בוקר וצהריים מירושלים (השער החדש מול נוטרדם) וחוזרות מדי ערב.

ניתן להגיע גם ברכב פרטי (5 דקות מהגבעה הצרפתית).

מחיר 30 ₪ ליום (כולל הסעות ירושלים - ענתא וחזרה + ארוחות טעימות מתאימות גם

לטבעונים).





לינה במחנה למעוניינים, בתאום מראש, בתוספת 20 ₪ (כולל ארוחות, פעילות
ערב, מזרונים).

Ralph Nader speaks at 2640

Red Emma's is incredibly pleased to welcome consumer advocate, lawyer, and author Ralph Nader to 2640 for an afternoon's discussion of his latest book The Seventeen Traditions.  The book is a departure from Nader's usual repetoire, focusing on his childhood in Connecticut and the seventeen key traditions he absorbed from his parents, rather than on exposing the evils of modern corporate America. Warmly human, rich with sensory memories and lasting wisdom, The Seventeen Traditions is a kind of modern-day parable of how we grow from children into responsible adults, and a reminder of a time when nature and community were central to the way we all learned and lived.  Local labor educator and community activist Bill Barry will introduce Nader, and members of the United Works Association and The 2640 Project will talk about their ongoing efforts here in Baltimore.  Buy your copy of The Seventeen Traditions at the event and get it signed by Nader, or purchase one ahead of time at Red Emma's!

Radical History Reading Circle - Summer FreeSkool!

Hi!

Interested in reading some good books and discussing them? You may have heard about the Ithaca Freeskool by now - it is a non-heierarchial, peer-to-peer (mostly adult oriented) learning environment for skill shares, projects, classes and discussion groups. This summer is our second term, and we have a great set of free classes for the community.

As part of the freeskool, we are beginning a Tuesday evening reading/discussion circle looking mostly at radical

history…the plan is to start with readings from Emma Goldman's

Anarchism and Other Essays, followed by parts of Howard Zinn's

(howardzinn.org) Peoples History of the United States.

With the nature and scope of the readings, we

feel it is especially important to try and make this group as open and

non-heierarchial as possible, but at the same time show that this will

not devolve into a flaky non-productive setting. So the class will be

open to moving in directions that participants consense on taking it.

Among other places on the web, you can find Emma's book at:

http://dwardmac.pitzer.edu/Anarchist_Archives/goldman/GoldmanCW.html

Zinn's book can be found at:

http://historyisaweapon.com/zinnapeopleshistory.html

with some other resources available at:

http://www.synaptic.bc.ca/ejournal/HowardZinn.htm

The first meeting will be important in trying to set the scope,

decision process, meeting places and curriculum/itinerary for the

group. While

drop-ins to the group are likely to alway be welcome, we hope if the

process for the group is important to folx, that they will try to make

it

to the first meeting.
