CFJ member Rich Forer’s new book, Wake Up and Reclaim Your Humanity: Essays on the Tragedy of Israel Palestine, is available in paperback and digital at Amazon and other venues.

With its insight into the longstanding struggle between Israel and the Palestinian people, Wake Up and Reclaim Your Humanity focuses on the psycho-spiritual roots of suffering and conflict, commonly misinterpreted historical issues, and the humanity that lies at the heart of the tragedy.

The book tells the true story of a lifelong supporter of Israel who underwent a remarkable spiritual awakening in which he realized he was as much Muslim or Christian as Jew, and as much Palestinian as Israeli or American. Existential fear and confusion, the hallmarks of separate identities, were transformed into compassion and clarity and an unequivocal vision of the roots of suffering spontaneously arose.

Recognizing that endless conflict only leads to alienation from our true selves, Wake Up encourages readers to look at the documented history of Israel-Palestine and get in touch with how they view and interpret that history. It offers readers a path that leads to freedom from false beliefs, enemy images, and the illusion of identity to equal rights for all people and a just peace between Palestinians and Israelis.
