Introducing the inaugural episode of "Shifting Narratives" with host Kristine Knutter. This podcast delves into transformative journeys of Americans, exploring their profound shifts in understanding of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and America's role. These individuals share experiences from the Middle East and the U.S., prompting reflections and actions toward justice and peace amid the complexities of the conflict.
Originally recorded in 2012 and 2013, the stories remain relevant today amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza and America's involvement.
The episode previews upcoming interviews with guests, including Craig Hunter, a Presbyterian preacher delving into the conflict through his interest in the Nazi Holocaust. Pamela Olson, an author, describes how a tourist trip in the Middle East opened her eyes and led her to explore places off the beaten path. Austin Branion, an Arabic language expert and policy professional, shares challenges of racism and personal growth in the Middle East. Bo Fauth, a lawyer, recounts a pivotal moment hearing shocking experiences from Jerusalem.
These snippets offer a glimpse into profound transformations and their impact on perspectives. Dive deeper into each upcoming episode with detailed show notes and references for further learning.
If you find narratives of transformation intriguing, have a curiosity about this complex issue, or are seeking actionable ideas amid feelings of hopelessness, I invite you to tune into this podcast.
