The diary of an American girl in Palestine (and beyond)
Wednesday, December 19, 2012
My last two days in Chicago were great. On Wednesday I transferred myself from the suburbs of South Chicago to the city and met up with my friend Danny, a former classmate who now works at the American Friends Service Committee.
Then we went to see Iyad Burnat's speaking tour presentation about the popular struggle against the wall in Bil'in. It was great going up to Iyad and surprising him, he didn't expect to see me in Chicago! Afterwards we all went out to dinner with the organizers of Iyad's Chicago tour, and had many fascinating conversations over dinner.
