Maoz Inon’s parents were killed on October 7. Aziz Abu Sarah’s brother died after being detained by the Israeli army. Most would expect them to be enemies. Instead, they wrote a book together, The Future Is Peace. Join us for an evening of conversation with Maoz and Aziz, moderated by Rabbi Jodie Gordon, with an opportunity for Q&A. Books will be available for purchase.
