We're talking about child detention in the West Bank, where Palestinians and Israelis continue to clash. A local group has stressed their concerns about the detention of children , and they're hoping to raise international awareness about the issue. Earlier this month in Rochester, they screened the film Detaining Dreams. Recently we've welcomed guests who bring a different viewpoint on the Israel / Palestinian crisis; this hour offers a counterpoint.
Our guests:
- Joyce Cassel volunteer with the World Council of Churches’ Ecumenical Accompaniment Program in Palestine
- Rev. Richard Myers, pastor emeritus of Immanuel Baptist Church of Rochester, and member of Christians Witnessing for Palestine
- David Sperber, M.D., founding member of Rochester Jewish Voice for Peace
- ImanAbid, western region vice president, New York State Young Democrats
