“Censored Voices” Screening with Professor Derek Penslar

One week after the 1967 ‘Six-Day War’, a group of young kibbutzniks, led by renowned author Amos Oz and Editor Avraham Shapira, recorded intimate conversations with soldiers returning from the battlefield. The Israeli army censored the recordings, allowing only a fragment of the conversations to be published. Censored Voices reveals these original recordings for the first time.

Following the screening, there will be a talk from Professor Derek Penslar, Oxford’s Stanley Lewis Professor of Israel Studies. Dr Penslar has written a number of books and articles on Israel’s place in modern Jewish and world history, and co-edits two scholarly journals, The Journal of Israeli History and Jewish Social Studies.
