Join us for a conversation with Arab Israeli columnist, author, and screenwriter, Sayed Kashua. Sayed Kashua is the writer of the popular satirical Israeli TV series Avoda Aravit (Arab Labor), which "holds a mirror up to the racism and ignorance on both sides of the ethnic divide."
Mr. Kashua has received the Prime Minister's Prize for literature, and the award for best television series at the Jerusalem Film Festival. Mr. Kashua will dialogue with two young Israeli leaders visiting Harvard as Wexner Fellows this year:
Sharon Avraham Weiss has served as Tel Aviv Regional Commissioner of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Ministry of Trade and Labor.
