Israeli authorities are imposing wide-ranging closures on the West Bank and Gaza throughout the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, limiting the movement of Palestinians just as the Islamic Eid al-Adha festival begins.The closures began at midnight on Thursday and last until Saturday midnight, massively limiting the movement of all Palestinians in and out of the West Bank and Gaza Strip for the duration of the holiday. The only possible exceptions that could be made, an Israeli military statement said, would be for humanitarian and medical needs, although the closure of government offices during the same time could present difficulties to those seeking to utilize the exceptions. Israel routinely seals the Palestinian territories during Jewish holidays, depriving Palestinians of the freedom of movement and cutting them off from family and work inside Israel.This year's closure, however, is particularly controversial, as the somber Yom Kippur day of repentance overlaps with the joyous Eid al-Adha festival, celebrated by millions of Palestinian Muslims

What powerful stories for us to honor during Hispanic Heritage month, said KCETLink President and CEO Al Jerome.

The 2014 honorees for Hispanic Heritage Month are: Florencia Molina is a survivor of human trafficking, community activist, and founding member and survivor leadership program chair of CAST, an organization dedicated to providing services to survivors of trafficking and slavery. Ms. Molina has rebuilt her life and shares her story as a member of the National Survivor Networks Speakers Bureau to help raise awareness about modern slavery. In 2003, she testified on behalf of AB22, the first law in California that established human trafficking as a crime, giving additional protections for survivors. Ms. Molina has educated a variety of audiences, including the Los Angeles Police Department, the FBI, diplomats, and legislators in Sacramento and Washington, D.C. Her activism was recognized in June 2014 by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry in a speech about the U.S. Department of States Trafficking in Persons Report. She also received the Minerva Award founded by Maria Shriver to celebrate women who work to make this world a more just place.
Kathy Gallegos is the director and founder of Avenue 50 Studio, a non-profit gallery that has supported more than 1,000 talented Latino artists, writers and poets. Through Ms. Gallegos leadership, the studio has grown from a personal art studio to a Latina-led thriving non-profit and arts presentation organization. In 2011, through a James Irvine grant, Ms. Gallegos created Poesia Para La Gente, a program which brings poetry to the community. This inspired her to take Latino art outside the traditional gallery walls and use it as a tool for inspiration. Ms. Gallegos has curated many Latino art exhibitions including at the Los Angeles County + USC Medical Center. In 2011, Avenue 50 received a grant from Cal Humanities to explore and uncover the little-known history of the roots of Chicano art in Highland Park, where the studio is located.
