ORA WISE
The daughter of a rabbi and a Hebrew schoolteacher, Ora was born in Jerusalem and has lived there on several occasions. During her latest period there, she worked with the Jahalin Bedouin in the West Bank through the organization Rabbis for Human Rights. Once back in the US, Ora attended Ohio State University and while studying Women?s Studies and Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, she co-founded the OSU Committee for Justice in Palestine. Shortly after, Ora was one of the organizers of the second National Student Conference for the Palestine Solidarity Movement. Ora currently lives in New York City where she is a member of Jews Against the Occupation and works in coalition with SUSTAIN (Stop US Tax-funded Aid to Israel Now) and Al-Awda Right of Return. Ora teaches Jewish Studies at a synagogue in Brooklyn and travels with the Palestine Truth Tour.
