After attending most of the Michigan Policy Summit earlier in the day on Saturday, I moved on to Dearborn for the Palestine Office-Michigan's Nakba-61 Commemoration. Phyllis Bennis, co-chair of the U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation and Fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies, was one of the keynote speakers. Her speech here was very timely with this week's visit to Washington, D.C. by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
RTR is that rare combination of blogger, activist, hockey player, and ailurophile. He is from Lansing, Michigan USA and is the current co-chair of the Peace Education Center of Greater Lansing and is active with Mid-Michigan Democracy for America (MMDFA).
