On this short, we spoke with Rebecca Pierce – writer, filmmaker, editor of the Unruly blog, and core member of the Jews of Color, Sephardi, and Mizrahi (JOCSM) Caucus that organizes in partnership with Jewish Voice for Peace. We spoke about her recent article in the Forward, Unruly’s plans for growth over the next year, and her recent film about a founding member of the Israeli Black Panthers.
EDIT: At the end of the show, David mentioned that Rebecca conducted interviews for a documentary about the Bakr family, produced for the Nation magazine. While Rebecca wrote the film and helped edit it, Dan Cohen was the one who conducted the interviews.
