On February 25 at 7:00 pm, the WDC Israel-Palestine Task Force will host a Zoom discussion of Apeirogon, by Colum McCann. The book tells the story of Israeli and Palestinian fathers who both lose their children, one to an Israeli rubber bullet and the other to suicide bombers. When they learn each other’s stories, their loss connects them and together they attempt to use their grief as a weapon for peace. Special guest, Tareq Abuhamila, will introduce the discussion with an update of current life conditions in Gaza and the ceasefire agreement. Questions about the ceasefire and responses to the book, are all a part of the hour-long gathering. Please register by emailing wdc@mennowdc.org by Monday, February 17th
