Marsha Carlton is a member of Friends of Sabeel-Sacramento Region and the Davis Committee for Palestinian Rights. While living in the Bay Area she worked with Bay Area Women in Black. Marsha will report on her second trip to Palestine sponsored by Interfaith Peacebuilders. She and her group participated in the annual olive harvest in the West Bank and she was also part of a delegation to Gaza that included Cindy and Craig Corrie.
