A shared linguistic landscape is vital, especially in conflict areas, where it can help to reduce the tribal inclination towards 'othering'. I was really happy to collaborate with Lissan on this article and help bring it to fruition!
"When both Hebrew and Arabic are spoken, power is shared more equally. Fear is reduced. Trust grows."
For our latest "Kolot: Voice of Hope" profile, we look at Lissan ליסאן لسان ('language' in Arabic), working to create a bilingual, more just, Jerusalem. www.progressiveisrael.org/kolot-voices...
