Just Bahraini, Just Lebanese

Author: Esra'a (Bahrain) - January 13, 2007

On the Just Bahraini campaign’s website, Mahmood posted this very moving video showing what happens when you define yourself by sect rather than by your nationality. In his words, “here is what we in Bahrain might end up in if we’re not careful.”

Watch this short moving clip that shows the divides within Lebanon.

The text at the end of the video reads, “when will we become Lebanese?”

    Hello, my name is Lydia Sizer and I am working on a thesis through Brown University in the United States looking at blogs. I am looking at how blogs affect mutual understanding among people of different ethnic backgrounds and I was wondering if you would be willing to take a survey I have prepared for my research. This research would give you a voice in determining whether blogs would be useful in aiding global security and counteracting racism. If you are interested, don’t hesitate to email me at Lydia_Sizer@brown.edu. Thank you so much for your time. For convenience, please enter “thesis survey” as the subject of your email as I will not know who is writing to me. Thanks again! In addition, you will receive an email later from lscello@aol.com. This is because my school email is routed through my home email. Thanks!
