* Voices from Sanayeh Gardens of Beirut:

Interviews recorded at Sanayeh Gardens in central Beirut with internally 
displaced Lebanese refugees from the southern suburbs of Beirut. These 
interviews during the first week of the Israeli attack on Lebanon with 
refugees fleeing from the neighborhoods of Haret Hreik & Ouzai in south 
Beirut.

On the ground in Sanayeh Gardens these interviews depict the conditions & 
political perspectives of internal Lebanese refugees, which at the height 
of the 2006 Israeli attack on Lebanon numbered an estimated 1 million

* Street Interviews from the Quebec Demonstration with Lebanon:

On August 6th, tens-of-thousands of people took the streets of Montreal in 
solidarity with Lebanon. The demonstration was the largest to take place 
in Canada during the war on Lebanon & was organized by Lebanese community 
groups in Montreal, Quebec labour unions & social justice groups in the 
city. Radio Tadamon! recorded numerous interviews with participants in the 
demonstration in Montreal.

* Audio from Beirut Solidarity Sit-in with Gaza:

Interviews recorded during an "open sit-in" which took place at Martyrs 
Square in downtown Beirut on July 12th, the same day that Hezbollah 
captured from the border region in south Lebanon. The interviews provide 
political perspectives of Lebanese social activists concerning the Israeli 
siege of the Gaza Strip & the first day of the attack on Lebanon.

* Sounds from Montreal Action Against Colin Powell:

Featuring audio from a Montreal demonstration against former U.S. 
Secretary of State Colin Powell who spoke at a Montreal event organized by 
the Jewish National Fund [JNF]. The interviews document voices from the 
streets who demonstrated against U.S. support for the Israeli attack on 
Lebanon & the political role of the Jewish National Fund in fundraising 
for development in Israel on occupied Palestinian land.

A report produced by New York City based independent journalist Ana 
Nogueira from southern Lebanon in the aftermath of the war. The report was
