Description

The Marquette Center for Peacemaking invites you to "Giving Voice to the Majority: Creating the Pro-Israel Pro-Peace Lobby", a public lecture featuring Jesse Greenburg of J Street on March 23, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. in Cudahy Hall 001, Marquette University.
For decades, the predominant voice from American Jews on Israel has come from a more hawkish minority. J Street was created to change that dynamic and to create the space in Washington, DC for policymakers to take more thoughtful, nuanced positions in order to help bring an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. J Street is staking out a moderate place on the political spectrum and creating a home for the majority of American Jews who believe that Israel's ability to achieve a two-state solution and maintain its Jewish, democratic character will come only through hands-on American foreign policy and the support of Congress.

This is the third public lecture in a four-part series as part of the CFP’s Israel-Palestine program. We hope you will join us and extend this invitation to members of your organization. Greenburg is the Chicago Regional Political Director for J Street. Cudahy Hall is located at 1313 W. Wisconsin Avenue Milwaukee WI 53233.
