Touching trip to Gaza

The attached link is to a slide show of the Code Pink Peace ladies bringing baskets of goodies to the ladies of Gaza to show their support and sympathy.

An historic 60-person delegation, including Pulitzer Prize winning author Alice Walker, witnessed profound devastation in Gaza, but they also witnessed tremendous resilience and strength. As they visited refugee camps and community development centers and areas hard hit by bombing, our delegates were impressed over and over again by the determination of the women of Gaza to make their voices heard and create a better future for themselves and their families. Click here to read a moving piece by delegate Ret. Col. Ann Wright, here to read blogs from our delegates on our PINKtank, here to listen to a Talk Nation Radio interview with Gael Murphy and Pam Rasmussen, and here to read the transcript from a Democracy Now interview with Alice Walker and Medea Benjamin about the trip. Nine of our delegates have chosen to remain in Gaza to continue to bear witness to what is happening in this beleaguered region.
