Manage episode 347949367 series 3386515
You can’t fight violence with more violence. That is a path more costly and damaging to the present situation. For Palestinian liberation fighter Sulaiman (Souli) Khatib, it is through nonviolence work that he is promoting understanding between Israelis and Palestinians and the end of the Israeli military occupation. In this inspiring episode, Souli takes us through his story of being a freedom fighter, a child prisoner, and a Nobel Peace Prize nominee. He shares the mindset that helped him see through his journey and cause, imparting lessons on culture, tradition, conflict, and hope. Souli also highlights the importance of having multiple narratives, that instead of seeing their differences, they can co-exist in the Holy Land. He then talks about the lessons Nelson Mandela offers to conflict resolution and his work of planting olive trees not for his generation but for the next who will reap them.
