INFO

ttp://www.qumsiyeh.org/aboutqumsiyeh/
I<
font size="1"> was born and raised in Beit Sahour, the biblical Shepherd
s' Field just on the outskirts of Bethlehem. My first hand exp
eriences as a Palestinian Christian and my educational background in uni
versities both in the Middle East and the US helped shape my evolving wo
rld views. I was raised under Israeli occupation and my large fami
ly still resides in the area.
My memories include vivid recollections of pasto
ral farm life, urban education, cultural events, and an overall mosaic o
f people of varied religions and backgrounds. They include a
rich International coterie of friends and relatives visiting from Europ
e, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the US. As for Israelis, my interacti
ons included not only Israeli soldiers and settlers/colonists but also a
verage Israelis from all walks of life and all stripes. <
/dd>My bachelor degree in Jordan included the close interaction with
Palestinian refugee community in Jordan (Jordan has over 2 million Palesti
nian refugees). I got my Masters degree at the University of Conne
cticut, a Ph.D. at Texas Tech University and postdoctoral training at St
. Jude Children Research Hospital and the University of Tennessee (inclu
ded Clinical Fellowship). I was extremely lucky that my research a
nd career turns necessitated extensive travels in Jordan, Israel/Palesti
ne, North Africa, East Africa, Europe, and America. The advantage
of the scientific work was accompanied with the advantage of meeting peo
ple of all walks of life. Thus visiting universities for their sci
entific collections or to get educated provided quite a different experi
ence than trapping animals near rural isolated communities in the Middle
of the Sahara desert or in the African savanna. This allowe
d me an understanding of societies not available to tourists. I became active more directly in social and political causes about 15
years ago but never belonged to one of the many Palestinian liberation m
ovements. My interests continued to evolve as I read more and had a
chance to learn from my interactions with the thousands of people I met d
uring my frequent travels. The educational resources available at the Un
iversities I affiliated with allowed me to pursue activism in new direct
ions. This included our abilities to quickly use the internet and
web and email as tools for activism. I was co-fo
under of a number of organizations and groups: The Triangle Middle East
Dialogue, the Carolina Middle East Association, the Holy Land Conservati
on Foundation, the Middle East Genetics Association, the Palestine Right
to Return Coalition (http://al-awda.org)
, Academics For Justice ( http://
AcademicsForJustice.org), among others. I publishe
d over 120 scientific papers in areas ranging from Zoology to Genetics.&
nbsp; My later training was in genetics and I served as Associate Profes
sor of Genetics and director of cytogenetic services both at Duke Univer
sity and Yale University. I also published two books: Mammals of t
he Holy Land and Bats of Egypt. This book is the first I write on the
Palestine question. However, I have published extensively on thes
e issues including over 100 letters to the editor and over 30 op-ed p
ieces. I am also interviewed regularly on TV and radio (local, nation
al and international). Appearances in national media included the Washin
gton Post, New York Times, Boston Globe, CNBC, C-Span, and ABC, among ot
hers. I share this rather complex background so that you the re
ader understand more about how I came to understand the importance and t
he centrality of a pluralistic solution to the simmering conflict in the
Land of Canaan.
