Inna Michaeli

Age: 25
Lives in: Tel Aviv and Jaffa, Israel.
Born in St. Petersburg, Russia

Active in: Coalition of Women for Peace. Coalition of Women for Peace is a coalition of Jewish and Palestinian women inside Israel, working to end the Israeli occupation in the West Bank and Gaza, empower and mobilize women for peace and justice struggles, counter militarism, racism, sexism and other forms of oppression in our societies.

I fight for: a life worth living, free from walls made of stone, racism and hatred. Free from economic exploitation and manipulations in people's lives for profit. Free for women and people of all genders and sexualities to live without fear and political, social and psychological oppression.

Your activism recommendations: For me, activism starts from passion, rage, love, and critical thinking. Critical thinking means not to take anyone's words for granted - including mine. The others elements are probably already there. So, really, in order to go out there and do political change, we only need a couple of women who share our political commitment and whom we trust.
