Mosaic Communities
7:00 pm
The Crossing 1127 University Avenue
(University and Charter)
The Mosaic Communities group is presenting two speakers, one Jewish and one Palestinian, and both members of the Israeli Committee Against Home Demolitions. Mosaic builds integrated (Arab-Jewish) housing in Israel.
Yasser Akawi, Board member, and Fred Schlomka, Executive Director, will present an update on the work of Mosaic Communities, including details of the pioneering project in the town of Ramle in Central Israel.
We will also talk about housing demolitions in Rafah and will link it to the issue of affordable housing in Madison.
This will be a public event and fund raiser, split between the Madison-Rafah Sister City Project relief account and Mosaic.
