Quote of the day:

"We have to look at a pitcher that came from Grandma and Grandpa’s house and ask whom it originally belonged to.”
--Aya Gov, who created the 'Archive of Plunder' as her final project at the Bezalel Academy of the Arts after discovering that her grandfather came into possession of such objects during the war, said that because in Israel there is no organization that represents all of the Palestinians in the discussion regarding the return of stolen property from war, citizens have to ask who are the rightful owners of the objects.*

This episode features  stories that inspire hope for peace between Israelis and Palestinians, which was recorded live at APN's "The Dove" on July 22 in Washington, DC. This event is done in partnership with New Story Leadership (NSL), a Washington-based organization that brings to DC a small group of young Israelis and Palestinians to provide them with leadership tools needed to create social, economic and political transformation toward peace between the two peoples.
