A conversation with Prof. Omid Safi, an Iranian-American Professor of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies at Duke University.
Above, we’re sharing a recording of this thought-provoking discussion, aimed at the deepest questions of justice and peace.
Some of the questions we explored:
— Can we move beyond condemnation to envision what “love has to say” at such a time?
— Can honoring each other’s grief allow us to reclaim some humanity?
— Can we speak difficult truths yet keep hoping that reconciliation remains possible?
— Can we respond to this crisis in a way that doesn’t reinforce its architecture?
— Can we respond in a prophetic way — calling for real justice, not just an end to external violence?
— What could a sustainable peace, rooted in justice, look like, given the huge imbalance of power?
