IYAD BURNAT, the coordinator of the Popular Committee in Bil'in, is coming to Boston TOMORROW.
For ten years Iyad Burnat and the Popular Committee have organized weekly demonstrations against the confiscation of Bil’in’s land and destruction of its olive trees.
For ten years demonstrators have faced brutal repression at the hands of the Israeli military and settlers.

You may have seen Iyad Burnat in his brother’s Oscar-nominated film, ‘Five Broken Cameras.’
Now you have a chance to hear him talk about Bil’in’s decade-long struggle for justice and freedom and what inspires him to continue on the path of non-violent resistance.
