DESCRIPTION:THERE IS ANOTHER WAY, directed by Stephen Apkon, tells the continuing story 
 of Combatants for Peace, a group of visionaries who refuse to surrender to 
 violence and injustice, and in doing so show that another path is possible 
 - for them, for us, and for all humanity. As we are all faced with 
 essential questions about who we are, will we choose collective liberation, 
 where the needs, rights, and safety of all are prioritized - in which our 
 humanity comes first, knowing that no one is free until everyone is free. 
 \n\nCombatants for Peace, nominated for two Nobel Peace Prizes, is an 
 extraordinary bi-national group of former enemy combatants - Israelis and 
 Palestinians - working together during an ongoing armed conflict. 
 Confronted with the devastation and escalating violence of October 7th and 
 the war in Gaza, the very core of the movement faces great challenges in 
 showing that there is another way. \n\nFollowing the screening will be a 
 Q&A with the filmmaker Stephen Apkon and with two members of Combatants for 
 Peace - Iris Gur and Mai Shahin.\n\n\nIris Gur, a former school principal 
 and educator, has led transformative changes in education and human rights 
 advocacy. With advanced degrees in educational leadership and mathematics, 
 Iris combines expertise and compassion to empower individuals and 
 communities.\n\nMai Shahin, a therapist and activist, has over 12 years of 
 experience in conflict resolution, specializing in nonviolent communication 
 and trauma therapy. Mai draws from her identity as a Palestinian woman to 
 promote understanding and resilience through nonviolence and compassion.\n
