The issue of Palestine and Israel is on many people’s minds. We want to make it possible to discuss this topic with empathy by creating a space for sharing, reflection, and listening—a space where thoughts and feelings are welcome. In doing so, we’ll explore the following questions: How did my perspective on the Palestine-Israel issue develop? Why is the Palestine-Israel issue discussed so controversially and emotionally in Germany? How can “being in the here and now” be understood in a political context? How does our powerlessness regarding this issue manifest itself—and how can we transform it into a counterforce, into the capacity to act?
This space requires a willingness to engage in self-reflection and to treat different perspectives and experiences with respect. Participation is voluntary.
