Wednesday June 19th at 6 pm at Darvill’s Bookstore

Come and hear Bill Dienst, MD and David Schermerhorn, co-authors of Freedom Sailors talk about how 44 intrepid passengers broke through Israel’s illegal blockade on Gaza in August, 2008. They sailed in the face of overwhelming odds and made it in spite of themselves.

The two fishing boats, Free Gaza and Liberty sailed into port where 40,000 Palestinians waited to joyously greet them. It’s an inspiring and uplifting story

Freedom Sailors has a forward by Col. Ann Wright and has been praised and endorsed by such figures as Alice Walker, Noam Chomsky, Ramzy Baroud, and Nobel Peace Laureate Mairead Maguire.

Don’t miss this exciting event at Darvill’s Bookstore, 296 Main St, at 6 p.m.
