In recognition of two years of Israel’s relentless genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, as well as National Disability Awareness Month in the U.S., Middle East Peace Now invites you to a virtual screening of the powerful, new, short documentary Severed The Story of a Boy From Gaza. Severed follows Mohamad Saleh, a Palestinian teenager from Gaza who lost his leg at only 12 years old, and has survived five Israeli military assaults. In those attacks, he lost his home, close family members, and best friends. Mohamad’s story is both deeply personal and emblematic of the thousands of Palestinians disabled by Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.
After a very brief annual meeting (10am-10:15am) the 27-minute film will was followed by discussion and Q and A.
A version of the 27 minute film is available to view for free on Youtube. Please consider making a contribution to families in Gaza, including Mohamad, and so that the filmmakers can continue to maximize the impact of the film and campaign.
