SUMMARY:Loss to Reconciliation: Conversations with bereaved Palestinian and Israeli families
DESCRIPTION:The Parents Circle – Families Forum is a joint Israeli-Palestinian organization made up of over 800 bereaved families. Their common bond is that they have lost a close family member to the conflict. But instead of choosing revenge\, they have chosen a path of reconciliation. Through their educational activities\, these bereaved members have joined together to take tens of thousands of Palestinians and Israelis on journeys of reconciliation. It is often raw and always emotional. But out of these interactions\, comes change. Not the kind of change that makes headlines\, but a more personal and profound shift in perspective. \n\n\n\nOn February 26th at 7 pm\, we will get the chance to hear from Elana Kaminka\, a bereaved Israeli mother\, and Arab Aramin\, a bereaved Palestinian brother. Both will share their stories of loss and personal journeys towards reconciliation\, with time for Q&A with audience participation
