  • Description

    At a time when the rich diversity of Israeli
    perspectives and experiences are getting lost in
    binary narratives, our long-time partners at Israel
    Story continue to tell stories that showcase the
    country’s complex makeup and history. After October
    7, the “This American Life of Israel” began a “Wartime
    Diaries” series documenting the war from different
    perspectives, including those of a Bedouin leader and
    a Palestinian peace activist. In addition to producing
    new content for mass audiences, the nonprofit now
    hosts workshops and monthly live events to
    empower everyday people to publicly share their own
    stories—pro-social work that prevents polarization
    by connecting diverse Israelis to each other.
