IS THERE ANY CHANCE FOR PEACE?
An Israeli Writer Reaches Out to Palestinians
Yossi Klein Halevi, Senior Research Fellow and Co-Director of Muslim Leadership Initiative, Shalom Hartman Institute
Last year, Jerusalem writer Yossi Klein Halevi published his New York Times bestselling book, Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor, which seeks to explain Israel and Zionism to Palestinians and others in the Arab world. The book was translated into Arabic and offered for free download. The result has been surprising openings and a new dialogue over competing narratives.
Federation is proud to partner with The Shalom Hartman Institute of North America, one of the leading centers of Jewish thought and education serving Israel and world Jewry. Together, we are offering Greater Washington’s Jewish community members meaningful opportunities to explore the most pressing questions facing the Jewish community today, including Jewish identity, Israel-Diaspora relationships, and civic engagement.
