Mission: The Dialogue Project's Mission is to build trust, relationships and partnerships amongst people who share different world views and experiences around the wound of the Middle East Conflict. We create monthly sustainable dialogue circles to explore the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and our cultures and faith traditions. We hear each other's stories and break down walls of silence that have grown around neighbors and co-workers throughout New York.

In our dialogue, I met a Palestinian man who described with glistening eyes the blossoms of the olive trees in his childhood house in Jenin, a few kilometers from where I grew up. I met a Palestinian woman who was shot at by a soldier who may have been my classmate, and who now raises her little girl the way I would raise my own. My friendship with this man and woman informs my life. The tenderness of our connection is in itself the movement forward.
