We are excited to invite you to join us for another installment of Nonviolence International’s webinar series - We Are All Part of One Another.
On Thursday, January 13th from 11:00 am - 12:30 pm ET (4:00 pm - 5:30 pm UTC) we will hold a discussion on...
The Two-State Solution is Dead - Now What?
The two-state solution is no longer viable. What is our path forward? Beyond The Two-State Solution, by Jonathan Kuttab, articulates a vision of a one-state solution that challenges both Zionism and Palestinian Nationalism. This book invites readers to begin a new conversation based on reality: two peoples will need to live together in some sort of unified state. In this interactive webinar, Jonathan continues this conversation, engaging in a discussion with renowned activists and academics about the necessity of a one-state solution. Panelists included Jeff Halper, Huwaida Arraf, and Noura Erakat. Hosted by Jonathan Kuttab.
