SUMMARY:The Middle East Policy Forum and the Atlantic Council Present: A Fi
 lm Screening of “Waging Peace”
DESCRIPTION:WASHINGTON D.C.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nThe Atlantic Council’s Realign
  for Palestine program will join the Elliott School’s Middle East Polic
 y Forum to present a screening of their documentary\, Waging Peace.\n\nWa
 ging Peace follows Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib\, a Palestinian-American writer a
 nd peace advocate\, on a raw and deeply personal journey. Since October 7\
 , Alkhatib has lost 32 family members in Gaza. Rather than retreating into
  silence or rage\, he has chosen to speak out—publicly rejecting extremi
 sm on all sides and advocating for a path forward rooted in truth\, accoun
 tability\, and coexistence. Viewers of Waging Peace will experience the 
 work of Mr. Alkhatib as he challenges entrenched narratives and steps into
  polarized spaces to build bridges and embrace complex truths in search of
  two-state peace.\n\nFollowing the screening\, attendees will get the chan
 ce to hear firsthand from Melanie Robbins\, Deputy Director of Realign fo
 r Palestine\, as well as Program Director Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib himself. 
 The event will conclude with a Q&amp\;A session where participants will ha
 ve the chance to ask questions about the documentary and the speakers. Thi
 s event is free and open to both the general public and media.
