Speaking the Unspoken, Naming the Unnamed: Israel & Palestine Dialogue

Nov 11
Wed 7:00 PM
Location

274 Fifth Avenue
Between 29th and 30th Street
New York, NY 10001

Estimated attendance
 5  people attended.

Who organized?
Bara Levitt,  Bowie Snodgrass,  Juliet rabia Gentile,  and Samir Selmanovic

Come explore how we can create an opportunity, a space where we can risk to speak the unspoken about our connections, histories, and the wounds of Israel and Palestine. We will cultivate a place where we learn how to listen, actively and generously. We will address the needs all humans have to be seen and acknowledged. We will share stories, surface differences, and have a difficult conversation around the hot words of home and homeland, justice and peace. Chanting, niggun, poetry, and prayer will begin and end the dialogue.

Marcia Kannry, Founder of The Dialogue Project, with other Palestinian Americans and Israelis will create a dialogue circle with all of us.

Marcia Kannry, Founder of the Dialogue Project, a Jewish American who lived in Israel for six years. A former Executive Director of The Jewish National Fund, Marcia traveled throughout Israel and the occupied territories during the first intifadah. Her own experience with dialogue at that time began the journey that has led to the creation of The Dialogue Project. Marcia earned her B.A. in religious studies from the University of Pittsburgh and has pursued master studies at New York University. She has created inter-group/interfaith organizations for more than 20 years. (President of the Board)
