Our group met on June 26 in Tivon, near Haifa.
We were about 25 people both Jews and Arabs.
Our group is unique in its methods. We listen to one person only for the first part of the encounter. He tells his life story with its emphasis on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
At this encounter we listened to Eman Hewala, who comes from Egypt tell her story. She shared her experiences growing up in Egypt in a religious Muslim family as well as the inner processes she went through as she realized that she wanted to/needed to leave Egypt. She talked about how she came to live in Israel several years ago and her hopes for the future.
The second part of the encounter was a time for the other group members to reflect back to her what hearing her story meant to them.
