Bil'in speaks out: the Wall means death

This Body is a Prison How do I know sovereignty is innate in every living thing? A man or woman under the cruelest conditions can stare into the sun until they go blind. An act of will- Choosing blindness, that inalienable right And believe me, people do. When all else has been taken.	This blog chronicles the four months I spent in the Middle East, spanning 2005 and 2006. I lived in the West Bank for most of the trip, filming a documentary about the psychological impacts of occupation.

This Body is a Prison
  How do I know sovereignty is innate
    in every living thing?
  A man or woman
  under the cruelest conditions
  can stare into the sun
  until they go blind.

    An act of will-
    Choosing blindness, that inalienable right

And believe me, people do.
When all else has been taken.

This blog chronicles the four months I
spent in the Middle East, spanning 2005
and 2006. I lived in the West Bank for
most of the trip, filming a documentary about
the psychological impacts of occupation.
