Updates from Women’s Delegation to Gaza – Alice Walker Speaks Out

For a Grassroots International staff member and Board member, this International Women’s Day offered a real glimpse at global solidarity. The two women, along with 58 other activists, writers and thinkers stepped across the rarely penetrable border into Gaza. Delegates hope to meet with their counterparts, including a number of Grassroots International partners, visit to the urban gardens of the Palestinian Agricultural Relief Committees (PARC), and meet with the Gaza Community Mental Health Program (GCMHP), whose building was severely damaged during the Israeli attack.

Among the delegates is award-winning author Alice Walker, who offers her reflections on the day. She shares here insights in an article which you can read by clicking here.
