The Robert Giles “Truth Matters” Author Series Presents
A Conversation with a Palestinian and an Israeli
Both Lost Family Members to War
Both Believe Peace is the Only Answer
Presented in Partnership with the International Affairs Forum
“If you must divide us, let it be as those who believe in peace and equality and those who don’t ... yet.” ~ The Future is Peace
Aziz Abu Sarah is Palestinian. Maoz Inon is an Israeli. Both have lost family to the conflict and have known the bitterness of righteous anger. The world expected them to be enemies, yet they chose a different path. They forged a bond of brotherhood.
In The Future Is Peace, co-authors Aziz and Maoz take readers on a transformative weeklong journey across a sacred and bloodstained land. Together, they discover the mythic, political, and personal history that divides but also binds them.
Sarah & Inon will be joined in conversation with IPR news director Ed Ronco.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with live music, and the conversation begins at 7:00 p.m. This event includes a Q&A session and a photo line immediately following in the lobby.
Tickets are $20 admission, or you may purchase a ticket bundled with a discounted book. Students & teachers are welcome to come for free.
