Introduction

Ahlan/Hi! My name's Michael Jamal Riegelman. I'm the Director of the NYC Arabic Language & Culture Club. I live in Hell's Kitchen, Madhattan. I served as an Environmental Educator with the Peace Corps in Morocco several years ago.

Where did your interest in this topic begin?

Well - I've Always been a peacefull tree-huggin' hippy, but more to the point, my interest in the 'Middle East' and hence 'Arab culture' began when I joined the Peace Corps to serve in Morocco.

Why are you interested in Peace in the Middle East?

I'm interested in Peace, not just in the 'Middle East', but throughout the world. I don't know that it is possible, but I want to believe it is, and that it can be created by learning about others, as well as ourselves.
