Come Hear an Eyewitness Account of the 2025 Sumud Flotilla to Gaza

Wednesday, Feb 11  7:00–9:00 PM in the meeting room.  

Portland’s own Paul Reid will share his firsthand experience aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, a 50-vessel aid mission to Gaza that was intercepted by Israeli forces in 2025. Reid, who began the voyage across the Mediterranean in late August, was detained along with several hundred others before returning safely to Oregon. He was part of a diverse international delegation that included Greta Thunberg, Mandla Mandela, former Barcelona Mayor Ada Colau, and several European lawmakers.   Co-sponsored by QPIN and Friends of Sabeel North America (FOSNA)-Portland Metro.  Donations to the AFSC Gaza Relief Fund are welcomed.
