“In this ongoing series called ‘Humans of SNS’ we’ll be hearing from SNS’ growing network of volunteer speakers - who become Fellows after taking part in an SNS tour - about a host of topics. We want them to share personal stories; examples of their activism; their feelings about the past and their hopes for the future.” - SNS

By Sharon Booth, Solutions Not Sides Founder & Director

“You and I inhabit a land that is, conceptually at least, two lands. Between the river and the sea lie the land of Israel and the land of Palestine. Tragically, those two entities happen to exist in the same space”.

Note: Solutions Not Sides makes no attempt to reconcile or support any of these films or the narratives they show, but we believe it is important to understand each side’s perspective and the way that their society presents and understands events.

You can find Part One here, and Part Three here.

There is a great proliferation of literature written about the Israeli- Palestinian conflict. Much of it is valuable, insightful, thought- provoking and eye-opening, whatever perspective you approach this issue from. Plenty of it is... not. But the same could be said for any important contemporary issue and as always its important to have an insight into what is worth reading - on the history, culture, contemporary situation and perhaps what the future might hold.
