We continue our conversation with Ahmed Tobasi, the artistic director at the Freedom Theatre in Jenin, and Peter Schumann, the 89-year-old co-founder of the legendary Bread and Puppet Theater based in Vermont. Tobasi was jailed this week after Israel rounded up hundreds of Palestinian men during a massive raid on the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank. Two of his colleagues remain in detention.
