The Palestinian-Israeli Conflict:

Cousins in Context

StorySharing: Epi 010 (Nov 5 & 12)

Andrea Springer interviews Karen & Randy Dalke

​

Recent events in Israel and Palestine have gripped the attention of the world. Sometimes it can feel hard to understand—so much history, so many wars, so many political actors, so many strong feelings. Dr. Brooklyn Walker has specialized in Middle Eastern politics and has taught college courses on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
     In this special two-part edition of StorySharing, Brooklyn offers some historical and political context so we can better follow the news. She also talks about how her faith influences her work in this area.
“In this situation, respecting the dignity of every human being begins by acknowledging the trauma for both Israelis and Palestinians. The stories of these groups both have really significant trauma in them, and that trauma has really shaped the way that Palestinians and Israelis think about each other, how they think about themselves, and how they think about their inner relationship.

It believes that your whole self is so important
