Look Back to Galilee. A HUNDRED YEARS of COMMUNAL LIFE. Saturday, November 26, 2011. The Great Not-so-white North. After a more or less smooth trip (as smooth as getting up at 3 am for a taxi, two planes. Germans and Israelis, Christians and Jews. On Friday afternoon, I drove north to the Hula Valley and my old kibbutz at Shamir. I'm staying with friends and visiting old acquaintances and, later this morning, interview Uzi Tzur, the first-born ben kibbutz. Links to this post. Wednesday, November 23, 2011.

Look Back to Galilee: A kibbutz in Africa
http://lookbacktogalilee.blogspot.com/2014/02/a-kibbutz-in-africa.html
Look Back to Galilee. A HUNDRED YEARS of COMMUNAL LIFE. Sunday, February 16, 2014. A kibbutz in Africa.
