Palestinian Aziz Abu Sarah and Israeli Maoz Inon forged a bond of brotherhood when the world expected them to be enemies. Both have lost family to the conflict. Both have known the bitterness of righteous anger. But they chose a different path. Join them for a powerful conversation about their unlikely bond and their new book, The Future is Peace.

Told with unflinching honesty, Abu Sarah and Inon’s story is proof that peace is not a naïve dream, but a courageous choice — for reconciliation to heal the wounds of revenge, for partnerships to change a destiny of war, and for empathy to save us from drowning in sorrow.

In this timely conversation, hear them discuss the experiences that shaped their journeys, the relationships that transformed their understanding of the “other,” and how empathy can save us from drowning in sorrow. Moving beyond politics and headlines, they explore what it takes to break cycles of fear, grief, and how ordinary people can become agents of healing and change.

NOTE: this event will be live-streamed with in-person discussion after.
