RECORDING: Political Change and Social Unrest The Arab Minority and Jewish Arab Relations in Israel | June 15, 2021
Last month, escalations in East Jerusalem sparked unprecedented, street-level violence between Jewish and Arab citizens in Israel and renewed hostilities with Gaza. Arab rioting, retaliatory Jewish vigilante attacks, and clashes with police sent shockwaves throughout the country and left many communities in fear. And only yesterday, Jewish and Arab leaders made history by forming the first governing coalition with an Arab party, Ra’am.
How do these developments affect Jewish-Arab relations in Israel now, Arab political aspirations, and the future of shared society?
On Tuesday June 15 at 1pm ET, IATF and JCPA partnered to host a discussion with MK Ghaida Rinawie Zoabi (Meretz) and BG (ret.) Dr. Meir Elran of the Institute for National Security Studies on these questions.
