Events for April 22, 2025 - April 22, 2025

The Jerusalem Youth Chorus sings a different song: they are an Israeli-Palestinian music and dialogue project. Featured from the Late Show with Stephen Colbert to the New York Times, JYC is raising youth voices for a shared future. The musical project rejects violence, occupation and terror—and have continued to meet throughout the war to sing out for peace, justice, inclusion and equality. The One America Movement is excited to present the Jerusalem Youth Chorus as part of the Faith Over Division Tour, inspiring people of faith to come together across religious, racial, and political divides to build trust and work together to improve their communities.

Activists and social entrepreneurs Aziz Abu-Sarah and Maoz Inon are at the forefront of a growing collaborative initiative of Palestinians and Israelis in the land. Just off organizing the biggest peace conference in Israel in 30 years and offering the closing remarks at the Netroots Nation Conference, together they are instigating a shift in vocabulary, coming from the lived experience in the region, to address the Israeli-Palestinian quagmire. Strategically, they are working to institutionalize unapologetic language of mutual equality, dignity and security, to serve as the core propelling any critical negotiations efforts.
