Personal History

An important part of dialogue is getting to know each other and listening attentively to each other's experiences. A very important part of initial dialogue meetings is the telling of our personal stories. What are our associations with Israel and Palestine? What brought us to the understanding that we have today? The following is a small sampling of some of the stories of dialogue participants. As this project develops, many more stories will be added to this page. You will also find personal narratives scattered throughout the dialogue.
