Description An account of the author's experiences in Palestine, where he worked on the front lines of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict with the International Solidarity Movement, a prominent organization of peace activists. He witnessed and recorded the suffering and injustices imposed on the Palestinians, such as violence meted out by both soldiers and settlers, long waits at checkpoints, travel restrictions, home demolitions, theft of natural resources, unfair economic practices, arbitrary detention and arrest, long prison sentences, and countless other forms of humiliation. The background during his stay in the West Bank, which often pushed its way into the foreground, was provided by two momentous events: the collective punishment visited upon the population of the West Bank by the Israeli army for the kidnapping of three teenaged Jewish settlers, and the subsequent military assault on the Gaza Strip, which resulted in the deaths of over 2,000 Palestinians.

Author Biography

"Richard Hardigan is a professor at a well-known university in the United States. He has published numerous articles in some of the world s top scientific journals and has received several awards for his research. He has lectured at universities all over the world. Between 2006 and 2015 the author spent a total of four years living and working in the Middle East. While teaching in Egypt he was caught up in the Tahrir Square uprising of January, 2011, an experience that shaped his views on the value and effectiveness of peaceful protest. He spent the summer of 2013 in Palestine working on his Arabic, and while traveling throughout the country he was shocked at the ubiquitous injustice he witnessed. The following summer he returned to Palestine and volunteered with the International Solidarity Movement for two months, where he acted in solidarity with the Palestinians in their resistance against the brutal Israeli occupation. It is this experience that he describes in The Other Side of the Wall. In 2015 he lived in and reported from the Palestinian refugee camp of Shatila in Lebanon, site of the massacre of 1982. The author has written extensively about his experiences in Palestine and Lebanon. His work can be found at richardhardigan.com "
