Salma Yaqoob

Yesterday I took part in a vigil organised by West Midlands supporters of the new national campaign, 'A Just Peace for Palestine'. I gave a reading, alongside Barbara Payman, a Jewish woman and trustee of the interfaith charity Spirit of Peace, and Shari Brown, a Christian and the Coordinator of Restore (a project of Birmingham Churches supporting refugees)

It was a lovely and well attended event. Afterwards I interviewed Ben White, author of 'Israeli Apartheid: A Beginner's Guide.' It will be online tomorrow.

Congrats to Revd. Ray Gaston, Interfaith Enabler in Birmingham for the Methodist Church for organising the event and thanks too for inviting me.
