audiobook Liberation; Imagination and the Black Panther Party: A New Look at the Black Panthers and their Legacy (New Political Science Reader) by Kathleen Cleaver; George Katsiaficas in History

Description

This book examines the Arabic conflict resolution method known as "sulha." In this process; notable male elders mediate conflicts between and within Arab communities. A lengthy process of political jockeying culminates in a ceremony that peaks when "enemies" shake hands and publicly forgive the crimes of the other. The reality of actual sulha deviates considerably from the ideal; but both the official framework and the actual events point to a deep seated valorization of peace and reconciliation in Israeli-Palestinian society.
