Why a Palestinian peace activist says a shared humanity can help heal the Israel-Palestine conflict

Ali Abu Awwad, Palestinian peace activist and founder of Taghyeer, discusses his journey from violent resistance to non-violence advocacy. He shares how personal tragedy transformed his approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and argues that both sides must recognize each other's legitimate belonging to the land. He also advocates for identity-based dialogue over border disputes, challenges diaspora communities to support solutions rather than taking sides, and emphasizes non-violence as an identity, not merely a tactic.
