Peaceful Co-Existence Among Israelis and Palestinians | "What do we owe each other?" ND Forum '24-25
The Notre Dame Forum brought together Israelis, Palestinians, and others who care deeply about the region and seek to break through the status quo and overcome division and polarization for a conversation on November 11, 2024.Supported by the work of the OneVoice Movement, these peacemakers advocated for a shared future that unlocks the full potential of both peoples. They also seek to empower voices that foster depolarization in discourse about the region in the United States in order to build support for the notion that Israeli-Palestinian coexistence is possible.Speakers include:Nidal Foqaha - Director General, Palestinian Peace Coalition
Ezzeldeen Masri - Chief Field Officer, PeaceWorks Foundation and OneVoice Movement
Tehila Wenger - Deputy Director, The Geneva Initiative
and
Lisa Schirch - Richard G. Starmann, Sr. Professor of the Practice of Peace Studies, Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies, Keough School of Global Affairs, University of Notre DameSince its establishment in 2005, each year the Notre Dame Forum invites campus-wide dialogue about issues of importance to the University, the nation, and the larger world. The 2024-25 Forum focuses on the theme, "What Do We Owe Each Other?"

- 12:27A Place for Play, A Place for Community: Foundry FieldHow do we take the work that we do in a class and not just leave it in a class. History is active. Baseball has long been known as “America's pastime,” but not every culture sees themselves in the sport. That's where Katherine Walden and Clinton Carlson come in. The Notre Dame professors—Walden teaches in the Department of American Studies and Carlson in the Department of Art, Art History, and Design—have focused their research and teaching on uncovering and sharing the histories of teams like the Foundry Giants, a local team of Black players working in the Studebaker factory’s foundry.Their work makes up part of the living museum that is Foundry Field at Southeast Neighborhood Park, a quality public-access baseball field for children and adults in South Bend’s urban core. It's a collaborative community project led by the Sappy Moffitt Field Foundation, the University of Notre Dame’s Center for Social Concerns, the Indiana University South Bend Civil Rights Heritage Center, and South Bend Venues Parks and Arts.Learn more about Professors Walden & Carlson's work: https://go.nd.edu/ead6e9 Learn more about Foundry Field: https://foundryfield.org/
