World March for peace and justice walking in Bethlehem next month

10.09.09 - 19:39

Bethlehem / PNN - Holy Land Trust of Bethlehem is coordinating the Palestine portion of the World March for the thirteenth and fourteenth of next month. This is part of a global initiative to promote nonviolence, peace and basic human rights with tag-team marches around the globe.

The World March is being organized by countless individuals and volunteers from multiple countries. Organizers say they have officially recognized the crisis of the Palestinian people, and its organizers have publically supported ending the injustices of the occupation.

In Bethlehem Rana Al Arja of the Holy Land Trust began doing media outreach to raise awareness months ago. And Louisa Morgantinni, former member of Italian Parliament, spoke in favor of the march while talking to PNN during a demonstration against the Wall in the West Bank’s Bil’in. Said she would participate herself.

On 14 October at 4:30 pm the group will begin the walk at Bethlehem’s Nativity Square and proceed to Aida Refugee Camp in the north of town. The route will pass by portions of the Wall that holds confiscated land on the other side.

The day before the march, an educational seminar is planned for international participants. They are slated to spend the day learning about the Wall and other facets of occupation.
