Palestine and Israel - Personal Experiences

New View conversation with Dianne G. Brause. Dianne grew up in a farming community in rural Ohio. She received a BA Degree in Sociology & Anthropology and an MA in Transpersonal Psychology. She served in the Peace Corps as a Volunteer in the Dominican Republic. Later, she co-founded an intentional community in Oregon, living there for 19 years. Over the years, she has traveled extensively in the Middle East, volunteering in Bethlehem and touring Israel and Palestine. She met and brought to America a young Palestinian who is now living in NH with his wife and child. She is quite devastated by the genocide now being carried out by the Israeli government.
