            "Noor Ghazi: An Iraqi American Peace Activist's Story"

    Noor Ghazi, an Iraqi-American peace activist based in the United
    States, appeared on a livestream presentation for Portland audiences on
    June 25, 2024, organized by Peace and Justice Works Iraq Affinity
    Group. The event was hosted by KBOO's Lisa Loving.

    Noor's story is deeply personal, but it also reflects the experiences
    of tens of thousands, perhaps millions of Iraqis who lived under
    sanctions and war, many of whom fled the country after the 2003 US
    invasion or, like Noor's family, when the "civil war" erupted in 2006.
    It's a story of surviving war and trauma, a story of adjusting to being
    a refugee resettled in America, and a story of hope against all odds.

    Ms. Ghazi explained that she's been returning every year recently and
    produced two documentaries about Mosul, where the younger generation
    gives her hope for a better future for her country of origin.

    Ms. Ghazi holds an MA in Peace and Conflict Studies with a focus on
    International Peace Development. She serves as Director of the
    University Sponsorship Program at Guilford College with Every Campus A
    Refuge (ECAR).
