Photos from Montreal photographer and community worker Scott Weinstein, 
who has traveled to Palestine to work with the Palestinian Red Crescent 
Society as a registered nurse. This photo essay documents the contemporary 
realities of Israeli colonialism and occupation in the West Bank, 
specifically focusing on the realities of settler violence against 
Palestinian civilians in the West Bank, specifically in the Palestinian 
city of Hebron.

As documented by numerous Israeli human rights organizations, such as 
B'Tselem, Israeli settlers have beaten Palestinian civilians and forced 
many Palestinians to leave the historic city center in Hebron, 
traditionally an important and vibrant Palestinian market in the West 
Bank.

* Scott Weinstein, has worked in Palestine with the Palestinian Red 
Crescent Society as a registered nurse. Currently Weinstein is working 
with Independent Jewish Voices, associated with the Canada-wide Alliance 
of Concerned Jewish Canadians, a network of progressive Jewish people in 
Canada opposed to Israel's occupation in the West Bank and Gaza. Scott 
Weinstein has also worked extensively as a community medical worker with 
Common Ground Health Clinic, with displaced communities in New Orleans 
impacted by Hurricane Katrina and the lack of U.S. government response to 
the natural disaster.
