Earlier, Bradbury produced a television clip of  a pre-Christmas vigil at the State Department protesting Israel's genocidal war. PCAP participated in the vigil whose theme was Christ in the Rubble, and the participants sang Christmas carols with words altered to call for a just peace in Palestine/Israel. State Dept Christmas

PCAP is an active participant in the monthly webinars of the Voices from the Holy Land. Voices from the Holy Land specializes in documentary films focused on Palestine/Israel peace and justice issues. hundreds of people, mostly in the U.S. watch documentaries selected by VFHL every month, and then participate in webinars where expert speakers discuss the documentaries and take questions from the participants. The webinar participants then break up into smaller groups which focus on how to strengthen the movement towards a just peace. PCAP is a regular participant in these break-out group discussions. Please consider signing up with VFHL Voices from the Holy Land - film series

On January 23rd, Paul Noursi and Philip Farah participated in a day-long Advocacy Day in Richmond, VA with the Virginia Coalition for Human Rights, of which PCAP is a member organization (See VCHR - About Us.) Paul is a co-founder and co-chair of VCHR. This year, the Advocacy Day had a record turnout, with about 80 participants showing up from all over VA. We helped defeat several bills aimed at suppressing speech, boycotts, or student protests criticizing Israeli crimes.

Philip Farah had several speaking engagements during the past 2 months, including one organized by the Church Episcopal of Spotsylvania, VA. He has several upcoming engagements, including one in Abingdon in Southwest VA, and a radio interview and a panel discussion in WV.
