On this episode of Women on the Line we are commemorating 1 year since the genocide in Palestine escalated. Today on the show, we hear poetry, music and speeches from a vigil that was held on Monday 7 October this year, mourning the lives lost under genocide. The vigil was held in Narrm and we will hear poetry readings from Dr Michaela Sahar, an Australian-Palestinian writer and educator; Noor, a Palestinian student from Gaza, music performance by Basil, Elarah and Phoebe; and then finally we hear from Julie Webb-Pullman, a war crimes investigator who has worked in Gaza.
