Suzan and Mazen's interview will counter the widely disseminated misinformation about the Syrian revolution - that the uprising was created by the U.S. They will discuss the democratic roots of the uprising against the Assad dictatorship and why American peace activists should look more closely at the conflict in Syria.

She graduated with a BA in international law from Mills College.
