Charlevoix Courier profiles Rebecca Glotfelty's film

In its article "Glotfelty Goes Behind the Scenes in the West Bank," written by staff writer Benjamin Gohs, the Charlevoix Courier profiled Rebecca Glotfelty and her film "Such a Normal Thing."

Read the article in the paper's November 15, 2007 e-Edition: http://www.charlevoixcourier.com/articles/2007/11/15/news/news08.txt

The Little Traverse League for Peace and Freedom showed the film on October 23 at the Charlevoix Public Library. (For information about the next film in the series, see the right sidebar.)

Gohs also wrote an editorial, "Before Peace First Must Come the Truth," about the Israeli-Palestinian problem in the same edition of the newspaper. Read it by following this link:
