Dr. Salim Munayer: Okanagan Tour
After my interview with Dr. Salim, I followed up by asking him to come to Canada. I also asked Phil Wagler to moderate. You might recall that Phil is the Global leader of the Peace and Reconciliation Network (PRN) of Evangelical Fellowship of Canada. Dr. Salim graciously accepted the invitation and did a Tour of Peace here in the Okanagan as well as the lower mainland.
It was an education, and a delight to spend time with Dr. Munayer and I am hopeful to travel to Jerusalem next year. Please pray for that decision.
The first part of this video has Dr. Munayer explaining narrative in general and how entrenched we can become; refusing to acknowledge additional and sometimes oppositional data into our existing narrative. The second half of this video, Dr. Munayer proceeds to unfold the Palestinian narrative in particular.
This project was in cooperation with PRN. Many thanks to Phil and his volunteer team, of which I count myself blessed to be part of. In addition, Graham Ord, musician, composer, singer/songwriter created a masterful piece called Lament. Graham was kind enough to show his video at the opening of this event, and I will post it on the channel as well. Dr. Munayer opens the first session asking Graham for permission to post it on the Musalaha website.
The original video consists of three hours of footage. For the sake of time, I have provided the most important components; you will not hear from myself or PRN in this video. Thank you for watching.
