An Evening with Rabbi Michael Lerner

Healing the Middle-East: Why Americans should be BOTH Pro-Israel and Pro Palestine

The stimulating evening will include a discussion, question and answer session and book signing for his newest book, Embracing Israel/Palestine.

Rabbi Lerner is making the case for why peace activists must be BOTH pro-Israel and pro-Palestine and that a lasting peace in the Middle East will only emerge if it focuses attention on fostering a spiritual transformation in the consciousness of both Israel and Palestine, and a triumph of the most loving and generous parts of the religious traditions in each community. This dialogue explores how such lasting peace is unlikely unless it reflects a similar transformation in the US, and a move from expecting “homeland security” to come from political, economic or cultural dominance.
