Decolonising Palestine - Conversation with Rev Dr Mitri Raheb
Event description
Decolonising Palestine
Faith vs Empire: The weaponization of the bible to serve the Zionist settler colonialism in Palestine
What has been the role of theology in facilitating injustices inflicted upon the Palestinians?
How do Palestinian Christians feature in the struggle for justice and liberation?
What is Liberal Christian Zionism? How instrumental has it been in deepening the Israeli colonisation of Palestine?
Why have many Western religious institutions been silent over the genocide in Gaza, or indeed have sided with Israel?
How do we preach the new paradigm of thinking about Palestine through the lens of ‘decolonisation’ rather than 'conflict resolution'?
To answer these questions and more, please join this conversation with Rev Dr Mitri Raheb.
Dr Raheb is a Palestinian Theologian and author of many books including ‘Decolonising Palestine: The Land, The People, The Bible’. Founder and President of Dar Al-Kalima University in Bethlehem, Palestine. Former pastor of Christmas Lutheran Church.
Join us on Tuesday the 4th of November at 7PM for this highly educational conversation.
