Lucy Aharish

Lucy Aharish, Israeli Arab journalist, invites you to an honest and open dialogue about daily life in Israeli society. Lucy's lecture is built upon her experience as a journalist for i24 News and Channel 2 News in Israel. As an Arab Israeli, Lucy stands, both personally and professionally, at the center of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. During her time at Duke, she will share personal interactions with the conflict and how it has affected her daily life. Highlights include Lucy's experience as the torch lighter at the annual Israel Independence Day ceremony and how a terrorist attacked her family and changed her life forever.

Join us for a memorable lecture (followed by Q&A) as we hear the stories of one of the most well-respected and strongest women in the Israeli communications industry, Lucy Aharish.

Sponsored by DIPAC, J Street U, Jewish Studies and Jewish Life.
