We believe in dialogue

Founded by diverse members of the Jewish community, Moving to Our Center seeks to catalyze interfaith and intrafaith dialogue around the historically complex relations between Israel and Palestine.

If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.
