Face 2 Face?

I want to be able to travel through out Palestine without having to flash my passport at every checkpoint as I wait hours and hours to get to one city from another! I want to see children finishing a full academic year free of school closures due to israeli occupation… I want to see university students graduate on time without having to worry about making up the years missed spent in israeli jails…I would love to witness all that in my lifetime… Working together on any project that helps promote all these things to come possible , just peace, is something I’m a strong advocate for…But, as Hadil took the words right out of my mouth, some initiatives, as enthusiastic and genuine as they may be, never cease to amaze me with their shallowness.. As if 60 years of struggle, misery, injustice and despair…and political differences can be simply swept away with goofy posters! I also couldn’t help but notice how this project attempts to fight racism and prejudice while sticking posters on the very wall which represents the very concepts it’s trying to overcome. Talk about outright irony!
