POPSFelicia Langer - a Jewish advocate against the oppression of the Palestinian people
Her tireless and unrelenting commitment made her the target of attacks from fellow Israelis who could not understand that her actions against oppression and discrimination were basically in the interest of the Israeli people. Early on she had predicted violent reactions against the ongoing occupation. Therefore the outbreak of the first intifada did not surprise her. As her work and endeavours became more and more fruitless, she closed down her office in 1990 in protest to make public that the legal system in Israel had become a farce. She emigrated to Germany. Her main concern has always been a just and fair peace agreement between Israel and Palestine, and for this goal she is still as active as before, writing books and articles, giving interviews and lectures etc. In March 2005, Felicia Langer was awarded with the "Erich-Mühsam-Prize" for her continuous struggle for the human rights of the Palestinian people.
