Sandra Ruch on the Canada Boat to Gaza (Freedom Flotilla II) campaign


On March 17, 2011, The Train's Denis Rancourt (CHUO 89.1 FM) interviewed activist organizer Sandra Ruch by phone from Toronto about Palestine, Canadian Israel policy and the upcoming Canada Boat to Gaza that will be part of the Freedom Flotilla II in May 2011.

Sandra Ruch is a Jewish Canadian woman who lived in Palestine for two years - which lead to her becoming a committed activist for Palestinian human rights.

The conversation far-reaching, deep, hopeful, and rich with personal experience.
