A stunning new book by Peace X Peace founder Patricia Smith
Melton offers a rare perspective on the possibility of
Middle East peace through the eyes of 30 Israeli and 30
Palestinian women whose practical approaches have already
gained traction across both sides of the Wall. Printed in
English, Hebrew, and Arabic, the book includes Israeli and
Palestinian women's voices equally. Each profile is
accompanied by an exquisite color photograph of the
subject. Spotlighting the lives of women from every walk of
life, Sixty Years Sixty Voices illuminates each woman's
deepest feelings, visions, and hopes for peace along with
the tactics they use every day to make peace a reality in
their lives. From Knesset member to Bedouin sheepherder
turned community leader, from comedian to the widow of a
Hamas principal, from prisoner to soldier, from rabbi to
teacher of the disabled -- thirty Israeli women and thirty
Palestinian women say who they are, what they do, what they
believe, what their life is like, and what is needed to
build peace. The result is a mosaic of 60 different
lifetimes of struggle, spirit, and sheer leaps of faith in
one of the most war-torn regions of the world. The
collection of interviews, biographies, and photographs
documents the power and experiences of these diverse women,
who have struggled to find a mutual destiny where each can
thrive.
