Eva Manly, Canadian delegate to the Women's Boat to Gaza, explains the WBG project, and women's role in this important act of solidarity.
She joins us in Nanaimo, B.C., where she is preparing to embark on the flotilla.
Manly recommends viewing a speech entitled "Rallying Cry" by Chris Hedges, delivered in New York City on August 10, 2014.

The speech provides context for BDS, of which Hedges speaks in the context of the 51 day bombing of Gaza.
