We are Chiara and Micah, two members of the International Solidarity Movement (ISM). Chiara has returned recently from Palestine while Micah has several years of perspective on his experience there.

Talking with each other and other ISMers about our post- Palestine thoughts and experiences has helped us recognize unexpected and undetected mental and emotional effects of the violence and hopelessness we witnessed. These conversations have been a rich source of insight and regeneration for us as humans and activists, and in LongTermVision.org, we hope to open up this conversation to Palestine activists worldwide.
