The Wall Between: Jewish and Palestinian Perspectives

The Wall Between, written by Raja G. Khouri and Jeffrey J. Wilkinson, attempts to offer tangible ways for Jews and Palestinians in the Diaspora to speak and, importantly, listen differently to each other. It examines the histories and narratives that have shaped and divided, the battles for identity influenced by fear and trauma, and the psychological and social barriers that keep Jews and Palestinians closed off from each other’s perspectives. It presents a guide for anyone who is open to new possibilities for the Israel-Palestine discourse in the West.
